Stop singing “I believe I can fly” because you can do it. Forget about the noisy plane that put you in an enclosed space where you can’t even fully stretch your legs. Paragliding gives you the closest experience as a bird<\/strong>, as there is nothing between you and the sky and cloud, so you can enjoy the breeze and a sense of freedom.<\/p>\n

If you live or travel in Kota Kinabalu City (KK), the nearest place where you can try paragliding is Kokol Hill<\/strong> (Bukit Kokol) in Menggatal, about 40 minutes away by car from KK. It’s ok if you don’t have any paragliding gear, you can book a “pilot” to give you a tandem flight. More on this later.<\/p>\n
