Paragliding Tandem Flight Switzerland

Paragliding Tandem Flight Switzerland
Lift off and enjoy a bird's-eye view of the world on a tandem paragliding flight. An experienced tandem pilot will take you on an unforgettable paragliding flight at your favorite spot in Switzerland.

Just two or three steps, and you’ll soar away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life into the blue sky on a tandem paragliding flight. Like a bird, you’ll circle high above fields, lakes, trees, and villages together with your pilot. And who knows—you might even encounter an eagle or a buzzard in the air that circles with you for a while. The birds dare to come within a few meters of the silently gliding tandem paraglider! Aerobatic maneuvers with noticeable G-forces are also possible during your paragliding flight. If you love roller coasters, you’ll certainly get your fill with paragliding. Of course, you can decide for yourself whether your pilot should make a few sharp turns or if you’d rather leisurely enjoy the scenery. And don’t be surprised if you dream about flying the following night...

Affordable tandem paragliding flights are available year-round at locations throughout Switzerland. Whether winter or summer, every season has its own charm.

Depending on what you arrange with your pilot, the meeting point is either at the landing site—from where you’ll take the mountain railway to the launch site—or directly at the launch site on the mountain.

Hi everyone,
The trip and the paragliding flight were perfect—very well organized, and the pilot was very confident, friendly, and competent! I’d love to do it again anytime! Best regards, Bruno

I went on a flight in Savognin with Dolf Müller.
He was very personable and friendly, and the flight was great.
I highly recommend him to everyone!

The day of the flight, August 3, 2926, was perfect, as were the equipment and, most notably, the excellent pilot (Yamina??).
However, I would like to note that we were surprised to have to pay the “group leader,” Dani, an additional SFR 30.00 for Leena Vanhala’s cable car ticket before the start of the trip at the lower station.
This was especially puzzling to me since I had read beforehand on the fare schedule posted for the cable car that a “round-trip fare” for an adult senior is 24.00 SFR; therefore, a one-way ticket for my wife should have been 12.00 SFR and not 30.00 as was demanded.

That was a truly amazing experience.

Professional service and support from start to finish. From the moment I was greeted until I said goodbye, I felt safe with Renato. Brief, clear instructions before takeoff and before landing. A long flight with great views. Just before landing, I almost needed a bag—and that was quickly provided, too. Luckily, I didn’t need it.

I wish you all the best and continued success!

It was a really cool experience, and the pilot was really great. I'd definitely fly with this flight school again or recommend it to others.

Paragliding - frequently asked questions

There is no minimum age for passenger flights. Until the age of majority, we only require the consent of a parent or guardian. We have special small tandem gliders available so that our youngest guests can also experience the fascination of flying. Please let us know when you register if you are under 50 kg. The minimum age for paragliding trial lesson is 15 years.

Your pilot will be happy to let you take the controls in a quiet minute. If you are interested in paragliding, he will also be happy to answer your questions about equipment and training. With the paragliding trial lesson you fly a few meters above the ground and steer the paraglider yourself. Always with radio support from the instructor, of course.

Paragliding is not considered a high-risk sport and is covered by the UVG in Switzerland. It is statistically much less dangerous than driving a car or horse riding. Students from abroad and people who are not gainfully employed must have their accident insurance confirm that paragliding is included.

The Panorama Paragliding Tandem Flight costs CHF 180.-, excluding cable car. The cable car can be added as an option when booking with a voucher or purchased directly at the mountain railways on-site.

The flight altitude depends on the one hand on the take-off altitude and on the other hand on the thermal updrafts. When thermal flight the pilot tries to climb with the warm updrafts to get above the take-off altitude. On good days this can be up to 3,000 m above sea level. However, the passenger can of course say if they do not want to fly that high. Such an altitude also depends on the day and can only be reached in optimal conditions.
