Bienvenue à Saint-Vincent-les-Forts, dans les Alpes de Haute-Provence, pour votre vol en parapente biplace avec Les Ailes Du Lac.
Notre site de décollage est l’un des hauts lieux du parapente en France. Il se trouve au cœur d’un village historique de la vallée de l’Ubaye, offrant une vue panoramique sur le majestueux lac de Serre-Ponçon. Cet emplacement de décollage, à la fois mythique et confidentiel, bénéficie de conditions aérologiques exceptionnelles ! Nous avons la chance de pouvoir revenir à notre point de départ une fois le vol terminé. Nichée à la frontière des Hautes-Alpes et de la Provence, notre région offre un cadre idéal pour s’adonner au parapente. Vous évoluerez au cœur de paysages naturels d’une beauté exceptionnelle, entre lacs et montagnes.
Que vous souhaitiez vous lancer dans un vol d’initiation ou vivre une véritable aventure aérienne, nos moniteurs diplômés d’État s’adapteront à vos souhaits pour vous accompagner dans la réalisation de ce rêve : voler !
Pourquoi choisir les Ailes Du Lac pour votre baptême de parapente
Nous réalisons des vols en ascendances
Aux Ailes Du Lac, nous proposons des vols en biplace parapente respectueux de l’environnement ! Comment ? Nous avons choisi d’utiliser les courants ascensionnels plutôt qu’une navette de transport. La zone du décollage se trouve à seulement 50 mètres de l’aire d’atterrissage, ce qui nous permet de réaliser nos vols (départ et arrivée) depuis Saint Vincent-les-Forts. Nous prenons notre envol depuis le village et profitons des ascendances au-dessus du lac de Serre-Ponçon, offrant une vue imprenable sur les montagnes des Hautes-Alpes. Nous revenons ensuite nous poser au même endroit, sans avoir utilisé de carburant avant ou après pour réaliser l’activité. Cette particularité nous permet de garantir nos temps de vols et de réduire notre empreinte carbone et de proposer une expérience éco-responsable à nos clients.

VOS AVIS, PARLeNT D’EUX Memes…

Smiling welcome, dynamic team.
A big thank you and especially to Mathieu who took me beyond the summit of Morgon.
I recommend 100%
First of all, a very warm welcome, we took the time to chat and laugh with the person who manages the organization of the flights.
First meeting with the instructor (Denis) who is excellent, gives very good advice and is reassuring.
Regarding the flight, superb experience, very professional, and thanks for the little “génépi”!
Everything was great.
We recommend without any worries
Top monitor and a breathtaking view of the region.
An unforgettable memory, we will definitely come back 😊
An unforgettable experience
A very friendly team
Good welcome
Very very good!... 45 min flight in an exceptional setting!
Thank you Jean François for this beautiful walk
Lac conservatory pocon! Can recommend it to everyone!!!
Despite weather difficulties, very few delays, consultation of the pilots who offered different solutions to everyone and ensured all the flights!
Delayed departure but very well explained and organized, top support!
Thank you Denis for all the precise explanations, the professionalism and the quality of the flight!! It was magical!! Full eyes: happiness!
The site flown over is already peaceful and magnificent on the ground, what can we say in the skies!!! To do again ❤️
The instructors were all very kind and professional. The view is beautiful. A real moment of pleasure and sensations! Thank you to all three of you for this great discovery!
PS: The photos and video option at the top!
I highly recommend ! Unforgettable experience !
5/09 a first flight with Bruno, fantastic experience in breathtaking surroundings, craving for more. Okay later then.
8/09 a second flight with reporting and piloting, I couldn't wait. After a briefing by Matthieu, I was allowed to steer myself during take-off. This gives an indescribable feeling to be able to fly so freely along the mountain walls, really the max.
Definitely do it if you are in the area. Thanks again to Bruno and Matthieu for this unique experience.

It was my first flight, I took the aerobatics option, it was incredible. But you have to like thrills.
Denis, the instructor was perfect and caring. He understood what I was looking for, we were on the same wavelength.
He made me dream……🤩
I highly recommend, perhaps on my next vacation (next year) I will repeat the experience.
Great thanks to the two boys they will recognize each other agnes and Pascal
Well done, keep making us dream
PS: don’t hesitate to take the video-photo option because the result is incredible.
Very nice instructors, possibility to do tricks for more sensations, take control of the paraglider and stock up on souvenir photos!
Enjoy!
We took a 20 minute flight
And it was great!
A big thank you to my guide, super pleasant and professional.like the whole team..
Smooth takeoff and landing.
And what about the view .... breathtaking.
Really not to be missed.
and it was really great 😁 and more in ride mode 🌲
The team and the driver are attentive and know how to put you at ease. And sometimes (well I think often 😜) likes to joke but know how to stop to reassure us if necessary.
I highly recommend 👍🏻 and can't wait to try the adventure again in ride mode with the addition of piloting and aerobatics 😅😇
Thank you for this moment ✌🏻
Very decent prices. Several options are available, such as video and photos. But also aerobatics and piloting lessons (the instructor lets you take the controls and tells you what to do and explains how it works). What I really appreciated is that you can choose the options during the flight. For my first experience I didn't really know if I wanted to do aerobatics or take the controls. Finally during the flight I decided to just enjoy the show.
See you soon and thank you to the instructor who accompanied Mehdi!
According to the return of the main person concerned: "The setting was magnificent, as was the view at altitude. The instructor, Olivier, without whom all this could not have happened, does not hesitate to share his passion with us, to extend the flight by a few minutes when conditions allow and to attempt a few spins. In short, we 100% recommend the Ailes du Lac team, who will know how to listen to you and give you confidence."
We can't wait to see the photos and videos of this great moment. THANK YOU.
Despite the vagaries of the weather, Les Ailes du Lac do their best to be able to fly in excellent conditions.
I recommend +++.
I will definitely be back and would recommend again.
At the top, wonderful memories.
THANKS.
The weather can play tricks, all the professionalism was to direct us to the best and to propose alternatives in case of bad weather.
We will come back !
Incredible sensations, a breathtaking view, an extra, very professional instructor and everything in fun (thank you Denis).
A unique moment to live that I recommend with the wings of the lake!
Thank you for his memories and looking forward to seeing you again for a longer flight 😉
Thanks to Matthieu for his professionalism and kindness.
The landscape was also spectacular.
Everything was PERFECT 🙏🏻🙏🏻🌞🍀🤩
Thanks again !
On the other hand, when registering, it is very unpleasant to be forced into longer flight durations, and options such as aerobatics, piloting or video, which are in addition to an already very expensive flight (110 € for 20 minutes). Especially since we are told a video for "the ridiculous sum"...of 25 €... Really abused and we did not appreciate that the man at the reception insists heavily and several times on the purchase additional options when we had clearly said no. On the other hand, we were not offered a commercial gesture for the second flight.
The instructors are real professionals
They explain everything about how it's going to happen, what we have to do when starting but also when landing
An experience I wanted to do for more than 15 years, and here it is
I took full eyes, with a feeling of being a real bird
Thank you to the whole team and more particularly to Mathieu who was able to reassure me and explain to me how the paraglider works with rising winds...
Again a big thank you
Unfortunately, there is no nearby campsite where you can avoid traveling by car.
The flight is for experienced pilots given the strong breeze and the challenging top landing.
In any case, there are also landings not close to take-off.
Many other locations should take an example.
Mathieu, the instructor, equipped with his kindness and his humor does everything to make you have a great time!
First flight or not, you can go there with your eyes closed, or rather wide open to see these magnificent landscapes 😊
I recommend the photos & videos option which will allow you to remember these magical moments!
The welcome there is friendly.

Profitez-en pour prendre un moment de détente sur place tout en observant les parapentes évoluer dans le ciel des Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. C’est l’occasion idéale pour nous rencontrer, poser vos questions et peut-être franchir le pas vers le vol biplace en parapente
Le saviez-vous ? on dit
parapente ou parapante ?
Effectivement nos aéronefs sont aux origines des voiles de parachutisme détourné en Para « pente », puisque que leurs utilisateurs s’élançaient depuis le sommet des montagnes et non plus d’un avion.
Aujourd’hui, après 50 ans d’évolution, notre matériel est plus performant que jamais. Pour décoller depuis le site de Saint Vincent les Forts, il suffit de quelques pas à la vitesse de la marche pour prendre son envol. Cette accessibilité rend désormais le vol en biplace parapente accessible à un public très large.

Disponible sur place :
Options de vol
*Les prestations de vols en parapente et de reportages photo sont commercialisées par : « les Ailes du Lac » pour le compte de moniteurs indépendants membre du syndicat local des moniteurs de parapente d’Ubaye Serre-Ponçon.
Notre vision du partage en parapente
Voler avec l’équipe des ailes du lac c’est vous faire partager les émotions qui nous ont émues lors de nos premiers vols. Les raisons profondes qui nous poussent à voler sont difficilements explicables, c’est pourquoi nous vous proposons de vivre le moment et d’en discuter après. La diversité des pratiques des pilotes de l’équipe s’étend du vol de distance au vol acrobatique en passant par le vol randonnée, marche et vol ou speedriding. Vivre un vol ensemble c’est peut-être vous transmettre l’envie comme nous de voler plus haut plus loin… « Les folies sont les seules chose que l’on ne regrette jamais. »
Oscar Wilde
