Description
Hang-gliding and paragliding in Cornwall is an extreme sport that allows you to fly above the county's amazing coastline and countryside, picking out landmarks such as The Eden Project, Helman Tor and The Minack Theatre, taking care to avoid sharp spires and pointy rocks.
Hang-gliders and paragliders get to soar thousands of feet above the county's landscape for hours, like (and often with) Cornish buzzards and other birds of prey. Hang-gliders use a much simpler and cheaper craft than their paragliding counterparts, consisting of an aluminium framed fabric wing, with the pilot strapped into a glorified sleeping bag hanging in a harness from the wing frame.
