Enjoy a sensational new experience with Helicop'Air in the Bol d'Air park. Combining virtual reality and real-life movements, this revisited concept of paragliding will give you the sensation of flying over the Vosges while remaining close to the ground. It's a great way to discover the Vosges landscapes from another angle, and to explore the thrills and spills of paragliding.
When you buy 1 ticket for Hélicopt'Air, you'll have access to 2 different experiences: a "Hélicool" session that simulates a peaceful paragliding flight, and an "Xtrem" session that will put you in the situation of 360° committed turns. If you're a sensitive soul, you can also combine 2 "Helicool" sessions for a virtual 180-second trip over the Vosges mountains.
With the "Hélicool" session, become a paraglider for 90 seconds. Wearing a virtual reality helmet, you'll be installed on dedicated equipment in the Bol d'Air park, and carried along in low-speed rotations. You'll glide through the Vosges sky. Feel the wind on your face, and let yourself be transported by this realistic journey through the 4 seasons. Between mountains, peat bogs and ridges, the Vosges landscape offers breathtaking panoramas.
If you're a thrill-seeker, the "Xtrem" session also promises to be an exhilarating experience. With your agreement, the rotation speed will be gradually increased to 4 g to keep you whirling for 90 s. Extreme sensations guaranteed!
