This is the course that trains you in traveling on snow, in the air, and at sea!
You'll gain a wealth of knowledge and build a solid foundation for a lifelong outdoor adventure!
As a student on this course, you will learn to master the paraglider wing and develop essential skills and attitudes to take care of yourself and others in a supportive paragliding environment. You will also receive basic training in sea kayaking, embarking on longer paddling trips planned by the student group with guidance from the instructor. Additionally, we take full advantage of the northern winter for ski touring, including training and practice in safe winter mountain travel, avalanche courses, and technical training for ski touring. And yes, we also welcome splitboards!
Our activities take place in the areas surrounding the school, in the breathtaking landscapes of Lofoten and Vesterålen north of the Arctic Circle, along the Indian Ocean coastline in South Africa, and various other locations in Norway.
No prior experience is required, but you should be active and motivated.
