So what is paralpinism? In short, this is an activity that combines classic alpinism or mountaineering, and paragliding. In other words, you climb a mountain in the usual way, but instead of a classic descend, you paraglide from the summit.

This is a growing activity in which you use a sail to descend from the peaks, and it is clearly becoming popular among younger mountaineers.
