Airborne Pursuits
The Yorkshire Dales are the perfect location to for all sorts of airborne pursuits due to the hills, mountains and spacious, un-populated areas. Hang-gliding is possibly the most popular and exciting way to enjoy the Dales. No engine and no emissions, simply soaring over the scenery with views normally only enjoyed by helicopters and planes. There are many paragliding and hang-gliding clubs in and around the Dales, with one of the most popular location being around Hawes and Low Abbotside. Parachuting is also widely practiced in the region, if you've got the guts then plenty of organisations are willing to give you the experience. Hot Air Ballooning is a superb and serene way to enjoy the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales.
