Our work is focused on ensuring your safety and enjoyment. You might find multiple options or information online or at your accommodation. Many will talk to you about or offer paragliding in the Chicamocha Canyon; some may even show you our information, our photos, our videos, and some might have our T-shirts and postcards on the wall with our logos. However, they won’t send you to us.
That’s why we wrote this article to guide you in the best way possible and ensure that the service you hire is with our company.
Parapente Chicamocha is a company established in 2009. We are the only ones who work directly with the Chicamocha National Park. We have the largest group of pilots in the region (6 in the low season, 10 in the high season), all with over 15 years of experience. We have a private flying site (exclusive to our company) which is also the highest in the region. Our organization is dedicated to taking paragliding practice to the highest level.
Attention! We do not have street vendors!
