Paragliding is weather dependant.
We simply go where the wind and
flying conditions are good.
Most locations are within 2 hrs of Portland.

PARAGLIDING in Oregon and southern Washington.
Two words we hear a lot of here in the West...
EPIC : Great flying conditions, with soaring flights of a grand scale.
MECCA : A place pilots travel to for the enrichment of there experience.

MAX ROC PARAGLIDING is a home based business located 15 minutes from Portland.
Centrally located right in the very heart of the most diversified flying sites anywhere,
with 285 flyable days a year. NW Oregon and southern Washington offer world class
Coastal sites, mountains, valleys, high deserts and the world famous Columbia River Gorge.

Learning to fly in such diversity really forces you to be a well rounded 3 dimensional pilot.
That is what we strive for.

Here is an interactive map of a few of the many sites we commonly fly.
Thanks to the Cascade Paragliding Club, Reed Gleason and some very gracious land owners.
All of these sites require that you are USHPA certified and you abide by all the site rules,
and or under instruction of a USHPA certifidied instructor.
