It all begins here, thanks to the Feltre Monte Avena Paragliding School. Located in the municipality of Pedavena, in the southwest part of the province of Belluno in Veneto, on the border with Trentino Alto Adige, the School leads us to take flight from the 1400 meters of Monte Avena. Behind us, the scenery of the Belluno Dolomites, in front the low Prealps and then the Veneto plain extending all the way to the Lagoon. On clearer days, we can admire in the distance the sea of Venice or let ourselves be enchanted by the splendid colors of meadows, woods, and Dolomite rocks.
Thanks to our instructors, we have learned to scan the sky searching for the ascending current that will take us high. We take off and turn in the warm air that rises to the clouds. We almost touch them, and then off we go, with our wing we move in the wind towards the next current, towards the next thrill.
