Chattanooga, Tennessee -- Go Hang Gliding By Cheri Sicard
When I tell friends about the experience, they seem most surprised that it was so easy. An introductory hang gliding flight is an adrenaline rush that one needn't be athletic to accomplish. In fact, the gentleman who went up after me was 74 years old. Age is no object, as the Flight Park has introduced those from 6 - 86 to hang gliding. Click here for a more in-depth article about a first time hang gliding experience and more great photos. Lookout Mountain Flight Park is located at 7201 Scenic Highway in Rising Fawn, Georgia. Phone 800-688-5637 (toll-free) or 706-398-3541 or visit www.HangGlide.com. The park does offer some onsite lodging -- cabins and camping and RV spots. For additional information about visiting Chattanooga contact the Chattanooga Area Convention and Visitors Bureau at 800-322-3344 or 423-756-8687 or visit www.ChattanoogaFun.com .
