AEROTREK Parapente is a tandem paragliding school based in Bagnères-de-Bigorre, in the Hautes-Pyrénées. Since 2006, it has offered visitors the chance to experience the region’s mountain scenery from the air, including the Haut-Adour valley, Col du Tourmalet and views near Pic du Midi de Bigorre. The business reports more than 4,000 tandem passengers since 2005.

Its flights range from calm introductory experiences to longer flights that use rising warm air currents, or thermals, to gain altitude. Options include child-friendly flights, discovery flights for first-time flyers and extended flights for beginners or more experienced participants. Flights are available throughout the year, typically lasting from 10 minutes to an hour, subject to conditions.

Pilot Olivier has flown since 2001 and is a state-certified instructor. AEROTREK emphasizes careful weather assessment, modern equipment, clear explanations and a reassuring, personal approach before, during and after each flight. With a focus on safety, teaching and friendly service, the brand welcomes both thrill-seekers and those who simply want to enjoy the scenery and reconnect with nature.
