Aero Sports

What is the ideal terrain for aero sports? High hills surrounded by wide expanses of barren land. This coupled with trained staff and availability of technology creates the perfect aero sport destination. Bangalore is one such destination in India.

Paragliding, Parasailing, Hang-gliding, Micro Light Aircraft… anything to do with flying for sport can be had in Bangalore, Karnataka.

Hang-gliding is a truly Zen experience. To experience the exhilaration and euphoria of Paragliding, head for Nandi Hills. The beautiful Jakkur airstrip set in 1sq. km of tall wild-grass close to Bangalore's Hebbal Lake is the focus of aero sports like parasailing and micro light flying.

Bangalore also hosts the Aero India show. It is a premier air show in India where the latest in aviation and avionics from all over the world are on display.
