Hi - I am actually looking for the same information. Ideally, a paragliding course in English close to Geneva.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

it would be really great if Buyclub can get a 'deal' for paragliding courses or paragliding tandem, oded or Nir, just also on my Wish list and I woudl definitly be interested :)

Try Chamonix, or Annecy. One of best areas in the world for Gliding.

In Geneva, between Carouge and mount Salève:

First of all you have to decide what to do: a swiss licence or a french one. If you are going for swiss one, then some schools in the region are listed here:

Just send them a mail to find out if they can teach in english. But before starting a course I recommend to go for a tandem flight, then you can find out if you like the feeling or not. The saleve is great for that and close to GVA. Chamonix is quite crowded, but also nice. In many of the ski resorts you can book tandem flights in summer. A nice site close to GVA is in Samoens:

I don't know any of the tandem pilots, just saw it last week and it looked OK.
