Paragliding from Kuk

Kuk rises above Kobarid, the long-standing heart of paragliding in the Soča Valley. It's our tandem takeoff, a dependable, scenic launch where the whole valley opens up beneath you the moment you leave the ground.

Kobarid has drawn pilots for decades for a simple reason: the flying is reliable and the setting is extraordinary. You lift off with the Krn massif towering to the north and the emerald Soča threading the valley floor far below.

What you'll see

• The emerald Soča winding through the valley toward the Friulian plain
• The Krn massif and the Julian Alps ranged along the northern skyline
• Matajur and the ridgelines marking the Italian border to the west
• One of Slovenia's most established and reliable flying areas

Conditions & timing

Kobarid's Kuk is known for steady, flyable conditions across much of the year, which is why it's a long-standing favourite of local pilots. We watch the wind and weather and confirm your flight time on the day for the smoothest, safest air. Flights land in Kobarid, in the valley below the takeoff.
