Paraglide in Granada
For adventure seekers who want the spectacular views and the airborne experience but without testing the forces of gravity, the Sierra Nevada is one of Europe's premiere sites for paragliding. In fact, it even hosted the Paragliding Championships back in 2001! Aside from skydiving, Ocio Aventura (listed above) also offers a variety of other "active tourism" activities, paragliding included. For another Granada paragliding company look up Horizonte Vertical, a well-known paragliding school and club, for an absolutely breathtaking experience.
