Our Sites
The South Downs is one of the friendliest paragliding environments in the UK - our rounded, grassy hills and beautiful countryside lend themselves to this most dynamic sport.
 


BHPA Registered
british hang gliding and paragliding association
APEX Paragliding School are a BHPA (British Hang Gliding and Paragliding Association) registered school, and all our instructors are fully registered with the Association.


After ClubPilot?
On completion of the Club Pilot rating, fliers are free to fly unsupervised in a club environment... If you wish to stay within a school / coaching environment, APEX offers an attractive scheme to enable you to continue flying "under supervision" until you are ready to go it alone.

Post-CP Pilots who are interested in further coaching, winch conversions or overseas trips, please enquire.

ONCE YOU HAVE TRAINED WITH APEX TO CP LEVEL, WE ALSO OFFER GREAT DEALS ON ALPINE COACHING FOR POST-CP FLIERS OF ALL LEVELS - ALL YEAR ROUND - CALL FOR DETAILS

A few notes about how booking works...

apex paragliding Courses must be pre-paid and pre-booked. You can find our secure booking form further down this page. paragliding introductionPLEASE NOTE - booked days do not have to be taken consecutively. WE TEACH ALL YEAR ROUND

apex paragliding In case of bad weather. If we need to call off your course, we will contact you in advance - generally the day before your booking. We reserve the right to cancel at any time for reasons of safety or comfort - the senior instructor's decision is final. Any credit will be carried forward to your next booking. Cancelled days do not automatically roll over to the next day, you will need to re-book your next session.

apex paragliding Who can fly? Anyone over 16 - there is no upper age restriction. You need to be averagely fit - there is little strength involved in paragliding, but walking up hills and carrying kit can be mildly demanding. We don't require a medical certificate, although anyone with medical problems should think twice about flying - if you have doubts, give us a call. You must be aware that it is a risk sport, and take this risk "on board". If the possibility - however remote - of personal injury due to indulging in a sport is unacceptable, then paragliding is not for you.paraliders
