Going up, up and away in a beautiful balloon is actually an option for a sky-high Tahoe thing to do! And, whew, what a view. But you can also soar into the Lake Tahoe skies in a helicopter, paraglider, small plane or in a powered hang glider.

Lake Tahoe Flying
2640 E. College Parkway, Carson City, NV
You love Lake Tahoe, and you feel as if you’ve seen all the sights it has to offer. But as the old saying goes, you ain’t seen nothing yet ... not until you’ve seen it from the air, piloting your own aircraft over the Carson Range and into the Tahoe basin. With Hang Gliding Tahoe, you fly a powered hang glider (with an FAA-certified instructor along) and enjoy the sight of the lake from an entirely new perspective. The flight can even count for training toward a pilot’s license. Morning flights offer spectacular year-round viewing conditions, and flights can be scheduled for 30, 60 or 90 minutes. Winter flights are warm and cozy with modern-technology heated clothing. Don’t forget to sign up for the photo or video services for a souvenir of the flight that you will treasure forever.
