Description

Looking for an unforgettable thing to do in Tirana? Fly above Albania with a tandem paragliding flight from Dajti Mountain and enjoy incredible views of Tirana, Dajti National Park, and the surrounding landscapes. No experience is needed. This beginner-friendly adventure is perfect for couples, solo travelers, and anyone who wants to try a unique outdoor activity in Albania. Your certified tandem pilot will guide you safely from preparation and takeoff to landing. Your flight starts near the Dajti Ekspres Cable Car top station, one of Tirana’s most popular attractions. From the sky, experience the beauty of Dajti Mountain, green valleys, and the Albanian countryside from a unique bird’s-eye view. Your flight starts from Dajti's west face at around 1,050 m and lands in the valley roughly 850 m below. In calm air that means 15 to 20 minutes of airtime. When thermals are working, your pilot can climb back up and the flight runs considerably longer — on good days, 20 minutes or more. Tandem paragliding offers a quiet and natural way to experience free flight without an engine. When weather conditions are suitable, natural thermal currents may help extend your airtime and make your flight even more memorable. Purchase the optional photo and video package for €30 per person on site to capture and take home high-quality GoPro photos, videos, and 360° photos of your flight.
