As you rise hundreds of meters on the cable car, you will be amazed by the views of Ölüdeniz — and reach the heights of your paragliding experience without the fatigue of a long vehicle journey.
- Cable car ride with Ölüdeniz views

Note: If the cable car is not operating due to weather conditions or maintenance, we will use comfortable shuttle buses to ensure your flight happens as planned.

Depending on the weather conditions and the flight style you choose, the average time in the air is about 25 minutes. If you would like to fly longer, please prefer midday hours and inform your pilot before the flight.
It is strictly not recommended for pregnant individuals, those with heart conditions, or those with severe high blood pressure to fly.
