The violent fires that have affected the Bassin d'Arcachon have forced the authorities to put in place new measures and the practice of paragliding on the Dune du Pilat is strongly impacted.

the Tuesday August 2, the sub-prefecture of Arcachon and the French free flight federation announced that until further notice paragliding is prohibited on the Dune du Pilat. No end date for the restrictions has yet been given, the Federation believes that this situation could last several months. We hope to be able to resume activity for the 2023 season, starting in April.
