Overview

Sopó is considered the cradle of paragliding in Colombia. The Pionono hill offers ideal conditions for tandem flights year round — east-to-west winds between 15 and 20 km/h and enough altitude to reach 500 meters above the takeoff point. On a clear day the views stretch over the entire savanna and the Tominé reservoir below.

No experience is required. Flights are tandem, you go up attached to a certified instructor who handles everything. Colescape handles transport from your hotel in Bogotá and back.

About the destination

The launch site sits on Pionono hill, one of the most recognized paragliding spots in Colombia. From the top, the landscape opens up completely — the Bogotá savanna stretching south, the Tominé reservoir to the northeast and the white village of Guatavita visible in the distance. The quiet before takeoff is its own kind of experience.

The tandem flight is handled entirely by a certified pilot. After a short briefing on the ground, you take off together and spend the flight in silence above the Andean highlands. No engine, no noise. Just wind and altitude.

Sopó is worth a stop after the flight. La Cabaña Alpina has been the go-to spot in town for decades — fresh dairy products, good coffee and a view of the countryside. The kind of place that makes the drive back to Bogotá feel less urgent.
