Let’s start with the first flight kilometers!

Flying from mountain to mountain – the dream of most pilots. We’ll show you what’s important with the cross-country license!

Route authorization

From forward to reverse winding

The aim of the cross-country course is to learn how to leave the flying hill and the familiar landing site. In other words, learning to fly cross-country.

Once the cross-country rating has been entered on your paragliding license, you can fly cross-country in compliance with air traffic regulations.

This cross-country authorization corresponds to the German “unrestricted pilot’s license – B-license” and is also recognized as such.

  • 10 alpine flights with an altitude difference of over 500 m
  • 10 flights with at least 30 min duration
