Paragliding flights in \u00d6l\u00fcdeniz are conducted from Babada\u011f National Park. Paragliders taking off from Babada\u011f perform their flights accompanied by the \u00d6l\u00fcdeniz view. The highest paragliding runway on Babada\u011f is 1,969 meters. <\/p>

A paraglider advances 7 meters while descending 1 meter on average. This means it glides. So, it glides in the air at a height of launch x 7. The higher the launch, the longer the paraglider can stay in the air. However, if the wind or thermal currents are good, the launch height doesn’t matter as much, because the paragliding instructor can stay in the air as long as desired by using these currents. You can get detailed information by checking the page of our \u00d6l\u00fcdeniz paragliding<\/u><\/a> team. <\/p>

After taking off from Babada\u011f, the blue cedar forest immediately greets you. The blue cedar forest in Babada\u011f is one of the largest cedar forests in the world. Just behind the forest is the magnificent view of \u00d6l\u00fcdeniz. <\/p>

During the flight, on your left: K\u0131drak beach, Lycian valley, and Butterfly Valley.<\/p>

On your right: Kayak\u00f6y, Karag\u00f6zler, and Fethiye are watching you.<\/p>

A standard Babada\u011f paragliding flight lasts 25-30 minutes. However, the time spent in the air can be extended with thermals and wind currents. If the weather conditions are suitable for paragliding and passengers want to fly longer, this flight can be extended by +10-15 minutes. This is more than enough for guests taking their first flights. Compared to its counterparts worldwide, \u00d6l\u00fcdeniz is one of the most advantageous spots in terms of paragliding duration. <\/p>

Also, immediately after taking off from Babada\u011f, the paraglider flies over \u00d6l\u00fcdeniz. You can try acrobatic maneuvers while over the water. These maneuvers will shorten your flight by about 3-4 minutes. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Fethiye is famous for paragliding, as well as for its paragliding instructors. This reputation, of course, comes from experience. Paragliding instructors must undergo many training sessions to work in Fethiye. At the end of these trainings, they must participate in exams and demonstrate their experience and knowledge. A new paragliding instructor starting to work in Fethiye has at least 1,500 flights. <\/p>

The difficulty of the training and examination phase takes a minimum of 3 years for someone who wants to pursue paragliding as a profession. This indicates that a lot of experience is required. Fethiye is the most controlled and safest flight point in the world. <\/p>

In Fethiye, there is a Slot unit affiliated with the General Directorate of Civil Aviation, which takes all safety precautions, monitors instructors’ compliance with rules, and checks parachutes. This unit inspects every detail, including weather conditions, and ensures that flights are conducted safely. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
