Kobala – Tolmin, Slovenia

My first cross-country flight opened a new chapter.

MY MOMENT

One flight across a new threshold.

After earning my German paragliding licence, I began working towards the advanced cross-country qualification. My first trip to Slovenia for cross-country flying took me to Kobarid. I arrived ready to learn, without knowing how much that first flight would mean.

On that very first flight there, I covered a distance that met the DHV cross-country examination requirement. It became the flight that helped me pass the examination and earn the qualification.

Slovenia therefore means more to me than mountains and valleys. It holds the joy of flying further for the first time. The sky was becoming more than a journey between launch and landing: it was a world I could keep exploring.
