What is ULM Léman — Cervens

Cervens airfield, very close to Lake Geneva and Thonon-les-Bains, is one of the microlight (ULM) practice sites in Haute-Savoie. Discovery flights are offered by FFPLUM-licensed pilots aboard fixed-wing microlights, providing aerial views of alpine landscapes (Lake Geneva, Arve valley, Mont-Blanc massif).

Formats and audiences. Several durations: 20-30 min discovery flight for a first taste, 45 min to 1h discovery flight to explore the region more widely. Open to adults and children from around 7-10 (depending on weight/height and club). The passenger sits next to the pilot and enjoys the view; no prerequisites. Onboard video as an option.

Good to know. Booking essential, subject to pilot availability and weather. Flights cancelled or rescheduled in bad weather (wind, rain, poor visibility). Prices ~€80-120 for 20-30 min, ~€200-280 for 1h. Bring warm clothes (cooler at altitude) and sunglasses. The pilot provides headset and full briefing before take-off.
