Paragliding in Zlatibor
Serbia's rolling highland resort plateau, flown from the Cigota ridge at 1,422 meters on some of the country's most reliable tandem air.
Why here
Zlatibor's open, rolling plateau makes some of Serbia's most dependable tandem paragliding: launches from the Cigota ridge at 1,422 meters, gentle thermals over meadow and pine, and landings by the resort town below. The pilot bench is deep for a small country: the local operations are flown by pilots with four-figure tandem counts and insurance included, at prices that make a first flight an easy yes. The plateau's resort infrastructure, Serbia's favorite mountain retreat, means the non-flying half of a traveling pair has a full day of their own.
Best months
May to September is the reliable window inside an April-to-October season; mornings and late afternoons fly smoothest. Tandem passengers need nothing but the weight range, roughly 15 to 125 kilograms. Weather days re-book easily.
Getting there & around
Zlatibor is three and a half hours from Belgrade with constant bus service. Flights meet in the resort center; the Gold Gondola up Tornik fills the rest of the day.
