Dondena Mountain Festival 2008
The Sparavel paragliding school have joined forces with Nova, to run the Dondena Mountain festival 2008.
It takes place on June 14th & 15th in the Champorcher area of Italy, just South of Mt Blanc, guests staying in the magnificent surroundings of Dondena Mountain hut (2186m).
The event is an open weekend dedicated to mountain sports and outdoor activities, with a focus on paragliding.
Guests can run, bike, boulder, climb, paddle, and of course, fly with free trials and demonstrations.
Paraglider pilots from beginners to experts are catered for, with taster sessions available, hike & fly excursions and Nova demo wings to borrow.
The event offers a wide range of activities and is suitable for the entire family.
The meeting point for the event is at 9am on the Saturday morning, at the Quincinetto exit of the A5. Take your own car to the village of Champorcher, from where a 4×4 shuttle service will take you to the refuge.
The cost is €35 / day for half-board accommodation in the refuge (a reduction on the usual price), and all activities are free. Book at www.laportadellavallee.com
