Its fairytale-esque topography makes the Mother City the dreamiest city on the planet for a paragliding adventure. Clear blue skies or magical sunset moments is what you can look forward to when you set off from Signal hill or Lions head, two of the best loved spots in Cape Town, boasting great views of the city that changes from sunset to magical night lights.. Flights last between five and 30 minutes depending on the weather conditions, and you do not need any previous knowledge or experience of paragliding – simply book and arrive at the takeoff point in comfortable clothing and one of the instructors will take you through some guidelines before take-off.
