When parasailing, one is towed by a motor boat. Parasailing differs from the sports mentioned so far in that there is no direct water exposure.

The parachute opens because of the current generated by the driving motor boat, to which the pilot – wearing a harness and a life jacket – is attached. With the boat’s increasing acceleration, the parachute is pulled into the air, the height depending on the lenght of the line. During the descent, the line is pulled in helping the pilot land on the motor boat together with his parachute.

Parasailing has the advantage of being suitable for people of every age and constitution, as no training is needed. Parasailing on Lake Garda is a unique experience and offers a splendid panoramic view from above. There are two parasailing centres in Bardolino and Lazise on the eastern shore of Lake Garda.
