Vol du Maïdo — 45-60 min at 2200 m
Air Lagon's ultimate flight. After a short forest walk to the edge of the rampart, you'll launch facing the majestic Mafate cirque and Piton des Neiges (3,070 m), the highest peak in the Indian Ocean. An exceptional thermal flight lasting up to an hour, with a unique panorama over the island's three cirques. Transfer to the take-off included. An experience reserved for enthusiasts and adventurers. Take-off happens at Le Maïdo, at 2,200 metres, close to three times the height of Les Colimaçons. The package runs from two people upwards and takes a full morning, transfer included. The flight reaches forty-five to sixty minutes in the air, the longest in the range. Booking is taken ahead, and a delay costs nothing when conditions do not allow flying. Le Maïdo is the only site in the range that needs a walk before take-off.
