Where is FlySapa Paragliding? - Navigation instruction

With so much information circulating, we still occasionally have customers getting lost or taking too long to reach us. Hope that this article helps.


FlySapa Office


Our office is located at the convenient crossroads between Sapa town, the Take-off Point in Ham Rong Mountain, and the Landing zone in Ta Van. It is a charming shophouse located on a main road in a newly developed urban area, known as Jade Hill Sapa, or "Trường Giang" (according to the locals).


Address:

02PN15 Sapa Jade Hill (Trường Giang), Lao Chải, Sa Pa, Lào Cai 31100, Vietnam


Google Map Locations:


Tips to get to our office:

  • Let us speak to your driver in Vietnamese. This probably solves everything!

  • If the door is closed (it rarely is), that means we are temporarily out on a team-wide mission. Call the hotline, don't go anywhere, please!!

  • Look for signboards featuring paragliding pictures and the "FLYSAPA" text.

  • Feel free to wear your shoes inside (we mop our floor twice a day).


FlySapa Powered Paragliding Park (a.k.a: the Landing Zone) - Ta Van


It's not easy to find a good landing zone in Muong Hoa Valley. It's a narrow valley with buildings and a stepped rice field. Perhaps, there's only one good spot that is big, safe, free of obstacles, and we are very lucky to be able to set up a landing zone here. It's so big that it's also suitable for Paramotor trike flights.

Tips to get to our LZ:

  • Due to some landslides this year, the road leading to the LZ is temporarily closed for construction. The car can only take you to the main road, from there about a 300m walk. We offer a tuk-tuk transfer service for all our flying customers.

  • Look for direction signs with a big arrow and the word "FLYSAPA".

  • The field is also accessible on foot from all over Ta Van area. Look for the specific spot on Google Maps in Satellite mode.


FlySapa Take-off - Ham Rong Mountain


ree

Our takeoff is from one of the grassland hilltops of Ham Rong Mountain. It is on the famous trekking route from Sapa to Hang Da. Before we set up our operation there, the site was only accessible on foot and was known only to the locals and the trekkers.


We work with the government and the local community to construct a road. As of now, 90% of the road is concrete, and the last 10% is dirt road. There are some very steep sections that can only be navigated by 4WD vehicles.

Tips to get to the Take-off:

  • Don't try to get there yourself. You may get lost or stuck in the middle of the way. Or worse, you may get stopped by the local people, who even put up a sign banning unregistered vehicles from using the road.

  • If you do go there, don't follow Google Maps' navigation. It often leads you down a walkway. Open the Satellite map, and find your way to the location.

  • The best way is to contact FlySapa and use one of their registered vehicles with qualified drivers.
