About this activity
The Aguergour plateau, forty minutes from Marrakech, is the most reliable paragliding site in the region: gentle slopes, stable thermals and a view that takes in the snow-capped Atlas and the Agafay hills.
You fly in tandem with a professional pilot: you run a few metres at take-off, then you have nothing else to do but look. Tea with a local family rounds off the morning.
