Motovun Paragliding – Soar Over Istrias Heartland

Motovun is already one of Istrias most dramatic settings – a medieval walled town perched 277 metres above the Mirna River valley, its stone towers visible from kilometres away. Now imagine launching from its slopes and soaring above the vineyards, oak forests, and river bends that have produced Istrias finest wines and truffles for centuries. Tandem paragliding above Motovun is one of the most exhilarating experiences in the Adriatic region, and IN MOTION provides private chauffeur transfer from your hotel to the launch site and back.

The Flight

Tandem paragliding requires no prior experience – you fly with a certified professional pilot who manages the wing while you experience the freedom of flight. The launch site above Motovun offers immediate access to the thermal currents that carry you above the Istrian heartland: the Mirna Valley below, the vine-covered hills of the Buje and Buzet regions spreading to the north, and on clear days, the Adriatic coast glittering in the distance.

Motovun – Medieval Istria at Its Finest

Before or after your flight, the town of Motovun itself is worth extended time. Walk its ramparts for the finest panoramic views in inland Istria, explore the Romanesque-Gothic church of St. Stephen, and stop in one of its excellent restaurants for a glass of Motovun Teran and a plate of truffle pasta.

Combine with a Truffle Hunt

The forests around Motovun are among the richest truffle territories in Istria. Combining a morning paragliding session with an afternoon truffle hunt in the nearby woods makes for a complete, unforgettable day in the Istrian interior. IN MOTION can arrange the full programme with private transfers between each experience. Your World, In Motion.
