Flying Experience Days: This premium hang gliding experience, in Devon, is a chance to enjoy flying at its purest. Soar over stunning countryside and coastline, using nothing but naturally rising air, and receive a link to an on-line video of your flight which you can share with your friends and family!

The experience takes place along the North Devon coastline, with views of Exmoor National Park. You'll be met by your instructor at the prearranged take-off point, and briefed on what to expect during the flight. Next, you'll be introduced to the equipment and secured in the harness alongside your dual pilot. After a few steps, you'll 'foot launch' from the hillside and take flight! As you admire the views, your instructor will point out the features of terrain and weather that allow the glider to maintain height and even gain altitude. If the conditions are right, you'll then be offered the chance to fly yourself. Free of noisy engines and propellers, you can enjoy a sensation like no other - before reluctantly returning to solid ground. Finally, you'll receive video footage from the wing-mounted cameras  - so you can relive the experience at home!

The Ultimate Hang Gliding Experience, in Devon, offers a serene, aerial perspective of a glorious landscape, with some great add-ons. An Experience Days voucher makes an unforgettable gift for adventurous souls, young and old.
