Paragliding Holidays
Mount Olympus, Ossa and Pieria mountain are located directly next to the Aegean Sea and just 100 km south of Thessaloniki, the second biggest city of Greece.
The highest peak of the Olympus mountain range, the seat of the mythological Greek Gods is 2918 m high, rising directly from the coastal plains of the Aegean Sea. This imposing contrast between mountains and the sea does not only fascinate nature lovers but it also offers several great flying sites.
The landscapes and micro-climatic zones provide ideal conditions for flying enthusiasts – from beginners to experienced pilots – nearly all year round.
In South Greece we will fly on the peninsula of Peloponnese and around Agrinion with Embessos, West Greece offers flights in the Pindos Mountain range and the Island Lefkada.
