The exact flight zone is confirmed the day before, based on the forecast.
Every morning we check the forecast, the wind and the conditions on site. We confirm your exact flight zone — Gudauri or Kazbegi — the day before your flight.
The big mountains create a remarkably stable microclimate here — Gudauri is flyable nearly year-round, and we fly almost every day. This is where our base, our team, and the Café Bar PILOT meeting point live.
More: GudauriParagliding.com →The valley's microclimate gives far fewer flyable days than Gudauri — the reliable windows are mostly in August. Flights here run on request, weather permitting.
More: KazbegiParagliding.com →Mt. Kazbek (5,054 m) looks magnificent from a Gudauri flight too — same mountain, different angle, and only ~35 km between the zones. If Kazbegi weather says no on your day, grab our inexpensive Kazbegi → Gudauri transfer (it's right in the calculator) and fly the very same day. We'll know your exact zone the day before your flight.
Tandem flights run from Gudauri and Kazbegi. Cross-country routes go much wider — three regions, three kinds of air, and open tracks to back it up.

Most of our guests do. Gudauri is ~120 km up the Georgian Military Highway — about two hours each way, and you are back in the city by evening. How a day trip from Tbilisi works →

Georgia Paragliding is a flight booking and coordination service. We organize the process, look after you at every step, and connect you with experienced, independent professional pilots. Behind it all stands the SkyAtlantida team — building paragliding in Georgia since 2013.
One of the strongest pilots on the team — a Paragliding World Cup and European Championship competitor, and the Caucasus distance record holder in several disciplines at once (unbeaten since 2020). He makes the final go/no-go call on every flight, reading the weather, the air, and the conditions on site.
Founder of SkyAtlantida and one of the people who started paragliding in Georgia in the first place, building it into the strong, recognizable Gudauri operation it is today. Runs the systems and the strategy.
Guest communication, logistics and program coordination — the part of the service you feel before you ever leave the ground. She keeps things clear and calm, even on days when the weather tests everyone's patience.
A certified tandem pilot and instructor with a gift for first-time flyers. His superpower is calm: steady hands, sharp attention to detail, easy communication — exactly the pilot you want when the butterflies show up.
Only vetted professionals, with clear procedures before every single flight.
Wind, visibility and thermal conditions are assessed before any go decision is made.
We're with you from first message to landing — no chaos, no unnecessary stress.
We explain how booking, deposits, weather holds and rescheduling work — upfront, before you pay.
Real reviews on independent platforms — and live videos filmed right after landing, grins included.
Video Reviews▶Guests — seconds after landingA few words about your flight, one button — your text is copied automatically, the platform opens, you paste and hit Post. Done in under a minute.
Give someone the Caucasus sky. A certificate for a specific flight — or an open amount they can spend on any package and extras. Beats socks every time.
Paragliding is an activity with objective risks — which is exactly why our protocol is strict. The senior instructor makes the go/no-go call based on actual conditions on site, every tandem carries a reserve parachute, and every passenger is covered by an Aldagi insurance policy (liability + personal accident).
None at all. Before launch you get a 5–10 minute briefing, and at takeoff your entire job is to walk a few steps next to the pilot. The pilot does everything else. You handle the enjoying part.
Up to 80 kg is included in the price; 80–100 kg +100 GEL; 100–110 kg +150 GEL; 110–125 kg +250 GEL; over 125 kg we can't fly. Kids fly accompanied by a parent — message us on WhatsApp for details.
We only fly when conditions are right — no matter the schedule or the demand. If we cancel your flight, we offer a free reschedule to a date that suits both sides; if that does not work, the deposit is refunded less the transfer fee and any services already rendered.
