Fly the Tatras

Soar the ridges above the High Tatras by glider, take a tandem paraglider over Zakopane, or jump at a nearby dropzone — with launches on both the Polish and Slovak sides.

The Tatras rise sharply on the Polish–Slovak border, and the flying reflects it: strong ridge and wave soaring for gliders, dramatic tandem paragliding above Zakopane, and dropzones within easy reach. Most people heading here base themselves in Zakopane or Kraków and travel out to a launch — Nowy Targ and Bielsko-Biała on the Polish side, Poprad on the Slovak. If your town has no launch of its own, tell us where you'll be and how far you'll travel; we'll point you to what's in range.
