Paraglider Pilot School

Paraglider flying can be gentle and smooth like the gulls soaring or it can be the intense thrill of riding a strong thermal above the mountain tops.

To be a good pilot you dont have to be an adrenaline fueled action junky you just need to be reasonably fit with steady nerves and have the desire to fly like a bird.

Some common questions:

Formed in 1991 Nimbus Paragliding is one of the longest running paragliding schools in New Zealand.

Our main training site is Taylors Mistake where we pay a license fee to operate from private land. This gives us a huge area to operate from and allows us to provide the safest training for our students. There are 13 take-off sites and 7 landing sites available within 30 minutes of the city center, this allows us to provide flying instruction in a wide range of conditions.

We employ experienced NZHGPA rated instructors who love flying paragliders and regularly compete in national and international competitions.
