Paragliding tandem flight Upper Valais
Welcome to the sunniest region of German-speaking Switzerland, Valais! Tandem paragliding in Valais is a rarity, as thermal flights can be booked here all year round. Not only will you be enchanted by the view of the mountain panorama, but often also by the weather. The mountains - including the world-famous Matterhorn and a further 21 four-thousand-metre peaks - regularly provide dry and warm weather. Ideal conditions for a paragliding tandem flight in Valais near Fiesch and Brig, especially for paragliding thermal flights.
With a bit of luck and good thermals, we have a magnificent view of the Aletsch Glacier after take-off. Provided you have skis or a snowboard with you, your paragliding flight starts at the Riederalp or Belalp mountain station at over 3,100 meters, otherwise at the middle station. You land in the valley at an altitude of 700 meters.
Paragliding Valais flight offer
The best way to combine your paragliding tandem flight in Valais with a day of skiing on the Belalp is to take a 45-minute paragliding flight to Brig in the evening. Of course, the impressive mountain panorama with the world-famous mountains is a highlight at any time of year! For all those who are booking a paragliding flight for the first time, we recommend the panoramic flight. All flight enthusiasts or people who have already completed a flight with a paraglider will be thrilled by the thermal flight will be thrilled. And if one flight is not enough, book a private pilot and get your money's worth.

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.
