Paragliding is one of the most popular recreational and competitive adventure sports that is being practiced and enjoyed for about six decades now. It gives a feeling of flying high like a bird. The most interesting aspect of this exciting activity is that you don’t need an engine, fuel, motors, etc., and even without these, the flights can last many hours and cover many hundreds of kilometres.

Talking about Iceland, the country was carved out over time by rivers and glaciers, leaving behind glorious scars in the formation of rugged canyons. With a mixture of sheer cliffs, varying stone textures, rushing rivers, and graceful waterfalls, none of these canyons were created equal and each has a unique quality, says icelandtrippers.com.
