ParaglidingKorçë
Fly over Korçë (Korca) and the mountains of southeast Albania, a city on a high plain that has hosted its own international paragliding competition. Tandem flights from €130.
The flight
Korçë sits on a high plain in southeast Albania, ringed by mountains. It’s a proper paragliding town: it has hosted the Korça Open Air, an international paragliding competition.
From the air you look down on the city’s red roofs and the wide plain around it, with the peaks of the southeast all around you.
It’s a very different flight from the coast: cooler air, big mountain views, and a city that’s worth a night in its own right.
