Take Paragliding to the next level as you experience a once in a lifetime opportunity of flying tandem and steering the glider!
Before take-off, you'll have the unique opportunity to ride the chair lifts at Coronet Peak to the top of the mountain.
Boasting the highest launch point in Queenstown, prepare to soak up absolutely incredible views of the summit after taking off from the snow at 5,400ft - that's twice the height of the Queenstown Gondola!

You'll learn all about Paragliding and how to operate the glider before taking off in Tandem with your instructor. Feel your adrenaline peak as you soak over stunning landscapes, and enjoy a moment taking it all in before having the chance to put your learnings into practice when you steer the glider yourself*!
The launch point is by far the highest of the flying sites in New Zealand, giving you 1100m height to play with as you try your hand at this epic, adrenaline pumped activity. Book today!
Very professional instructor who gave me a very pleasant and unforgettable experience. Highly recommended.
Fantastic, Peggy. I am pleased to hear you had an awesome, unforgettable experience. Thank you for recommending us. I hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay here in Queenstown. Regards, Gitti Tapper Coronet Peak Tandems
I have done paragliding from Queenstown many years ago, but wanted more of a challenge, this ticked all the boxes. The paragliding team are fabulous and a great bunch of guys. Would definitely recommend doing paragliding from Coronet Peak rather than in Queenstown above the gondola. The flight time is waaaaay longer, views are spectacular and the instructors were great. Thank you to Jack, who talked me through everything..many thanks. My partner and children really loved the experience and are very keen to do it again.
Many thanks for this great review, Sue! We're glad your family and you had a great time with us out there and got to enjoy the amazing views Queenstown has to offer :) Safe travels around, regards, Julia.-
This was a definite highlight of our trip! We had an awesome time and hope to do it again one day! Thanks Tony and Angus for an awesome time 😁😁😁
Thanks a lot for flying with us Sasha and Lachlan! It was our pleasure and we're glad you had a great time up in the air. Enjoy the rest of New Zealand, regards, Julia - Coronet Peak Tandems Ltd.-
We had such an incredible time paragliding - our first booking had to be pushed back a couple days due to the wind, but it was so worth it. We had absolutely spectacular views and the flight itself was breathtaking. Highly, highly recommend!
Thanks for that amazing review Nicole! We're glad you enjoyed the flight so much, loved having you as customer. Safe travels around and maybe see you next time :) Regards, Julia - Coronet Peak Tandems Ltd.-
