Volo dellAngelo

Imagine yourself soaring high above a deep valley, while the wild landscape of the Italian Basilicata stretches out below you. The wind rustles in your ears, a sense of freedom runs through your body and adrenaline pumps through your veins. This experience, known as the "Angel Flight" (Volo dell'Angelo), allows you to fly between two magicalmountain villages of Castelmezzano and Pietrapertosa and experience Italy in a whole new way - from a bird's eye view.

Fly like an angel

In the remote Basilicata region, amidst the cliffs of the Lucani Dolomites, lie two villages that seem to have been forgotten in time. Castelmezzano and Pietrapertosa, both perched high in the mountains, are connected by a cable car that provides one of the most extremethe most extreme, yet beautiful experience in Italy - the Angel Flight zipline. This adrenaline-pumping attraction allows you to literally fly like angels over a valley that is known for its incredible natural beauty.

During the flight, you are secured in a harness and can enjoy a 1.5-kilometre flight at an altitude of up to 1,000 metres above the ground. At speeds of up to 120 km/h you will experience an incredible combination of adrenaline, natural beauty and freedom. The view of mountains, cliffs and picturesque towns in the distance will take your breath away.

Two villages, two flights

One of the unique aspects of the Angel Flight is that it offers two different flights between villages, in both directions. The first route, called San Martino, takes you from Pietrapertosa to Castelmezzano. The second route, Peschiere, will fly you in the opposite direction. Both flights have their own charm and offer slightly different views of the surrounding countryside. The experience is suitable for both singles and couples - you can even fly in pairs side by side.
