Safety Standards in Tandem Paragliding: How We Ensure Your Safety

Tandem paragliding over Lake Ossiach is an unforgettable adventure – and safety is our top priority. At Adventure Wings, we adhere to the highest standards to ensure you have a worry-free and secure paragliding experience in Carinthia. In this article, you'll learn about the measures we take to make your flight as safe as possible.

1. Experienced and Certified Pilots

Our tandem pilots are state-certified, have years of experience, and undergo regular safety training. They are highly familiar with the flight conditions at Lake Ossiach (Gerlitzen Alpe) and know how to handle various weather situations.

2. State-of-the-Art Equipment & Regular Checks

We use only high-quality paragliders, harnesses, and rescue systems, which are regularly maintained and inspected. Our equipment is checked annually by Parachecker (www.parachecker.at) in Carinthia. All our gear meets the latest safety standards and undergoes a thorough inspection before each flight.

3. Weather Monitoring – Flying Only When It’s Safe

Weather conditions play a crucial role in paragliding. That’s why we closely monitor the weather and wind conditions and only fly when it is absolutely safe. If conditions change, the flight will be rescheduled – safety always comes first!

4. Briefing & Clear Communication

Before takeoff, you will receive a detailed safety briefing, where we explain the flight process and how to position yourself during takeoff and landing. Our pilots are always available to answer any questions you may have.

5. Emergency Planning & Rescue Systems

Although emergencies are extremely rare, we are fully prepared. Every tandem pilot carries a reserve parachute system that can be deployed in exceptional situations. Our landing sites are carefully selected to ensure maximum safety. At Lake Ossiach, we offer the largest and safest landing area for a smooth touchdown.

6. Feeling Nervous? No Problem!

If you’re feeling unsure or have a fear of heights, we’ll guide you with patience and reassurance. Tandem paragliding is gentler than you might expect, and most of our guests feel completely relaxed and start enjoying the flight within seconds. 😊
