Paragliding Tandem Flight Locarno
With up to 2160 hours of sunshine a year, Ticino is Switzerland's sunniest region. Here you can fly over Locarno and Lake Maggiore with a tandem paraglider and experience Ticino from a unique and unforgettable perspective during this paragliding flight. Nature shows you waterfalls, valleys and seas of flowers from above, which makes for great moments. Thanks to the good thermal conditions, paragliding and long thermal flights are possible here.
You take off from Cimetta, Locarno's local mountain. Landing is near Ascona, directly on the lake. Depending on the wind conditions, you can also start your tandem paragliding flight on Monte Tamaro and then land in Monteceneri. We would be delighted to show you Ticino from a lofty height on a tandem paragliding flight.

The experience was fantastic. Christoph, my pilot, picked me up in a very friendly manner and was a great guide. That was key to making it such an enjoyable sightseeing flight. I highly recommend Flight Base—and Christoph in particular.

It was an absolutely wonderful experience—and totally addictive. :-)
I felt completely taken care of and like I was floating on air—simply amazing!
Even our very first interaction was totally relaxed, easygoing, and funny. And the hassle-free way you handled the rescheduled date was great.
Keep up the great work and put a smile on everyone’s face high up in the sky....

A friendly, professional pilot with a wealth of experience and expertise. He was able to answer all the many questions I had during my first paragliding flight in detail, even while we were in the air. The flight itself was fantastic, and I felt completely safe the entire time. My favorite part was getting to steer the paraglider myself.
