If your wish to fly is keeping you awake at night, we have a great plan to satisfy your desire for adventure and adrenaline. With a paragliding flight what awaits is pure enjoyment and delight for the eyes, even more so if you are looking to do it in La Rioja. These are landscapes that will leave even the most adventurous traveller speechless, and when you discover them from the air you will be even more fascinated. Take note, because below you will find everything you need to enjoy a paragliding experience in La Rioja with capital letters.

If you are worried about not being able to decide where to go paragliding in the province of La Rioja, don't worry because you will be able to choose between a few destinations that will make it really difficult for you to decide between one or the other. Each one more beautiful than the last and all of them with a characteristic that you are going to love, as the options you have for paragliding in La Rioja will always be over mountain ranges that will make of this activity an incomparable experience.

- The Sierra de Codés mountains may be one of the best destinations we have in La Rioja for paragliding. Although it is true that this mountain range belongs to Navarre, it is a destination so close to La Rioja that it is well worth making a short trip to fly not only through these two regions, but also through a third one, the Basque Country. Flying in this area on a day when the weather conditions are favourable, you can reach an altitude of more than 1,400 metres, flying over Mount Ioar (the highest peak in this mountain range) among other scenic gems that you can observe from the paraglider.

- Mount Cenzano is a fantastic place to try this aerial sport too, since here you can expect to enjoy an unbeatable paragliding flight, with forests full of enormous pine trees that make everything you see even more magical. Add to this the fog that is always present and so characteristic of the area, and your paragliding tour will be spectacular.

- A paragliding flight over the Sierra de la Demanda is, without a doubt, one of the most spectacular options you have for a paragliding adventure. This enormous mountain range that crosses the provinces of Burgos and La Rioja is a magical place for this type of flight. Many of the experiences take place in the municipality of Ezcaray, taking you to the interior of the Sierra de la Demanda, gliding among its hills and valleys full of vegetation. However, you can also go further south to fly over the Moncayo, the highest peak in the Iberian System. Choosing this alternative will give you a first-hand taste of what cross country is all about: crossing a whole area over a long distance in order to enjoy the most surrounding environments in the shortest possible time. This will give you the chance to see beautiful Riojan vineyards during the flight, which will be dyed an incredible maroon colour as you fly over them until you reach the mountains of Sierra de la Demanda.

Another exquisite option is to fly over the Sierra de Cantabria with a paraglider. This mountain range that crosses 4 provinces is a perfect place to paraglide in La Rioja. It is perfect for experienced paragliders, since the differences in the weather here, in addition to great contrasts in the landscape, generate strong changes in temperature and the wind gushes, which guarantees a lively and exciting experience. Peaks such as San Tirso or Bonute are some of those you will be able to glimpse from the paraglider.

As if it had been "created" to paraglide over its most beautiful terrain and corners, La Rioja undoubtedly has great plans for thrill-seekers. And all this without having to think about anything, as all flights are carried out in tandem modality. So, all you have to worry about is coming with comfortable clothes, closed sports shoes that allow you to take a little speedy run to gain momentum and... let's fly away!
