An event that brings together national and international pilots to share the sky in a non-competitive way, creating a space for learning and exploration. Organized by the Honduran Paragliding Association in collaboration with the municipality of Villa de San Francisco.
Honduras is open for flying. We want to establish the country as a new destination for pilots to explore and the mountains of Honduras as the epicenter from where the sport will continue to grow.
The second edition of the festival will be held from 26th to 30th of March, 2025 in Villa de San Francisco, F.M.
A total of 5 days, with preliminary activities to promote tourism and paragliding.
The event will be open for exploration, so each day during our briefing session, we can discuss routes or goals. You may form teams with other pilots and decide to explore somewhere new. But we will have a set of predefined tasks that are eligible for a small recognition.
In the end, we want you to have fun, explore the potential of the region and leave us with important data, questions and recommendations.
PILOT RATINGS
Novice pilots are welcome to join the festival and we will guide you and provide valuable information so you can fly the area in a safe way. But because we are focused on Cross Country flights and exploiting the region, if we determine that the conditions for the day are not suitable for your skills, we will increase the rating needed for flying and focus on the more experienced pilots.
