The town, nestled in the heart of Mexico, is a gateway to the skies, and I was here to experience the thrill of hang gliding over the stunning landscapes of El Peñon. As a professional athlete turned travel writer, I’ve chased adrenaline across the globe, but the promise of flying over this breathtaking rock formation was something I couldn’t resist.

The day began with a drive through the lush forests that surround the area. The anticipation built with every twist and turn of the road, leading us to the launch site. The team was welcoming and professional, their expertise evident in the way they handled the equipment and prepared us for the flight.
