About Altitude Adventures
Altitude Adventures offers tandem paragliding flights from Golden's legendary Mount 7, one of the highest and most renowned free-flight launch sites in Canada. Soaring high above the Columbia River and the town of Golden, the company gives first-time flyers the chance to experience true mountain flight with no prior skill or training required — simply strap in with a qualified pilot and step off the mountain.
Every flight is flown by a fully certified tandem pilot trained and approved under the standards of the Hang Gliding and Paragliding Association of Canada. The experience includes ground transportation up to the Mount 7 launch, a thorough safety briefing, and in-flight photography so guests can keep a record of the views over the Purcell and Rocky Mountains. Depending on conditions, pilots can deliver anything from a smooth, scenic glide to a more dynamic thermalling flight, steering over the river valley for the best vantage points. The season runs from late May through October.
With Mount 7 rated among the top free-flight destinations in the world, Altitude Adventures gives visitors a rare opportunity to fly a truly world-class site safely and accessibly. For travellers chasing a standout, adrenaline-tinged highlight to their Golden trip, a tandem flight high over the Columbia Valley is hard to beat.
