Dorset beginners paragliding and paramotoring course

May 19, 2026 - May 23, 2026

Introduction

Dorset is one of the most beautiful parts of the UK with rolling hills, the Jurassic coastline and beautiful villages dotted all around. Only a couple of hours from London and an hour from Bristol makes it an easy destination. This course is the BHPA EP course and the perfect introduction to paragliding and paramotoring

 

The Flying

We are so lucky to have such a wide range of flying sites in Dorset with beautiful costal bowls, inland ridges and options for all wind directions.

The landing fields tend to be big and very straight forward although most of our sites have good top landing options.

We often see deer on the hillsides while flying and our flights even take us over iron age hill top fortresses.

The EP (Elementary Pilot) course is the beginners introduction course and by the end of it, you will have made a number of flights and will have developed a good level of glider control. This course is the precursor to the Club Pilot for both the paragliding and paramotoring full qualification course.
