Hang gliding in Rio de Janeiro
A tandem flight from Pedra Bonita, 520 metres above the sea, landing on the beach of São Conrado.
Take off from the ramp on Pedra Bonita, 520 metres up in the Tijuca Forest, and glide over the trees and the ocean with Pedra da Gávea beside you. After about 7 to 20 minutes in the air you land on the sand of São Conrado beach.
You fly tandem with a certified pilot, so no experience is needed. Choose hang gliding (a wing) or paragliding (a parachute). Flights depend on the wind, so Enzo books the best moment of the day and keeps a second date in reserve.
