Kelly Farina - fly guide & Ex-British Paragliding Team member

"After learning to fly in England I moved to Mayrhofen in 1995 to learn about Alpine flying and all this time on I'm still here.

After visiting many flying sites around Europe I was always happy to return to the Zillertal and enjoy it's forgiving terrain and interesting conditions.

I started Austrian Arena in 2002 when I realised the potential for motivated and recreational pilots alike to enjoy safe XC flights in stunning surroundings."
