If you’re up for a bit more adventure — you should go paragliding. And honestly, Revelstoke is one of the best places to try it.

You’ll start high up on the mountain with a certified instructor, get strapped into your harness, and after a short run down the slope… you’re in the air. It’s surprisingly smooth — way less scary than it sounds — and within seconds you’re floating above Revelstoke and the Columbia River valley.

The views up there are unreal. Big mountain peaks, endless forest, and that feeling of just quietly gliding through it all.

Since it’s tandem, your instructor handles everything, so you can just sit back, take it in, and maybe even get a few photos or videos while you’re up there.

It’s one of those experiences that feels like a proper adventure without needing any prior experience — and something you’ll probably talk about long after your trip.

If you want to add one thing that’s a bit different from the usual hikes and viewpoints — this is a really good one.
