Paragliding Experience
Paragliding is a captivating free-flying sport, where pilots soar effortlessly through the sky using fabric wings akin to parachutes.
This dynamic aerial activity relies on wind as its lifting power, either from dynamic lift (rising wind hitting a slope) or thermal lift (thermal rising air currents).
Pilots can reach impressive heights and cover long distances without the aid of a machine, harnessing the natural elements to propel themselves.
The paragliding experience offers an unparalleled adrenaline rush, with professional guides ensuring a safe and thrilling journey over the breathtaking tea plantations of the Puncak region near Jakarta.
Tea Plantation Sightseeing
Puncak, a city nestled between Sukabumi and Cianjur in Bogor, boasts a captivating tea plantation that enhances the breathtaking views during the paragliding experience.
This vast, verdant expanse of tea bushes provides a stunning natural backdrop for the adrenaline-fueled activity. Visitors can marvel at the meticulously maintained rows of tea plants, which seem to stretch on endlessly.
The soothing aroma of fresh tea leaves wafts through the air, creating a serene ambiance that perfectly complements the exhilaration of flying high above the landscape.
With the assistance of professional guides, adventurers can fully enjoy the unique blend of tranquility and excitement that the tea plantation sightseeing offers.
