Description:

X•Ape
is a real paragliding adventure in the Wild heart of Italy. The goal is to cross the Central Apennine mountains by flying, with the help of logistical support. We will start in the North of the Central Apennines, covering daily a distance between 50-80km to our next waypoint where we will sleep in an agriturismo or B&B, to end up after 5 days in the south of the Central Apennines. Pick you up will be foreseen between the waypoints. This makes it a perfect trip for different levels of XC pilots.

Depending on the weather forecast the route can be adapted in order to have the best flying conditions. The places we will cross are Monte Subasio, Poggio Bustone, Leonessa, l’Aquila and San Donato. The exact route will be revealed later.

Program:

The morning starts with a detailed meteo briefing, flight planning with waypoints, and analysis of the orography. During the flight, you will get coaching and guidance from Jo. He will show you the best route, give you tips and make sure you fly safely.  In the evening we relax with some good Italian food and a de-briefing and analysis of the day.

It’s a nice experience to improve your XC skills and enjoy spectacular landscapes.
