Practical information
Enjoy a paragliding flight over Bohinj Lake from Vogel and start your flight at an altitude of 1670 m (5,500ft)!
- The Eastern side of the airfield and the mountain tops in the surrounding area provide excellent thermal activity in the morning and all the way until noon. In addition to good paragliding opportunities, the Vogel airfield offers beautiful and unforgettable views of the Triglav mountain, South Bohinj, Karavanke and Kamniško Savinjske Alps. On the days when the thermal vertical airflow appears, you can rise to an altitude of more than 2000m, which gives us a nice view of the Adriatic Sea and the coast.
- A flight departing from this altitude should last around 15 minutes depending on weight and wind.
Course of events
Please allow for 1.5hrs in total for this activity including 15 minutes of flying.
