Namib Desert Lodge near Sossusvlei, Namibia, part of the Gondwana Collection, will launch powered paragliding on May 1. The new venture is a partnership between Gondwana and Wild Air Safaris.
Erick Jayet from Wild Air Safaris says: “We offer tandem flights with a motorised paraglider and an experienced pilot.” With its varied landscapes, Namibia is probably one of the most attractive countries in the world for powered paragliding, and Namib Desert Lodge is one of the best locations, says Jayet.
Flights can be booked and paid for at the lodge. The 20-minute flight costs N$2 900 (€195) per person and is subject to availability. Flyers must be a minimum of ten years old. For more information, visit Wild Air Safaris here.
