Paragliding over Decin

Paragliding over Decin

Děčín's exceptional location in the Elbe valley with surrounding hills makes paragliding possible. In 2013, deforestation of a large slope above Annex and thus created a suitable terrain for the launch of paragliders.

For a successful parachute launch you need an altitude (the higher the better), a suitable launching area, a bit of the right wind and finally a bit of "flying skill". Then you can just enjoy the unusual views of the beauty of Děčín and its surroundings.

Detailed information can be found on the website PGKrupka in the section starters.
