Activity Snapshot

Activity description

Enjoy spectacular views of mountain panorama and lakes as you glide from one of the peaks down to the centre of Interlaken, in the heart of the Bernese Oberland, Switzerland.

Discover the Interlaken Region differently, from the air, just like a bird. View the mountain trio of Eiger, Mönch, Jungfrau as well as Titlis and Schilthorn while flying over the crystal clear lakes of Thun and Brienz. Before getting back on the ground, you will fly over the Aare river and land in the centre of Interlaken on the Hohematte park.

The take-off place Amisbühl in Beatenberg is perfectly located in an area with excellent thermal wind conditions which can potentially extend your air-time. Meeting point is at the paragliding centre in the heart of Interlaken where you get equipped before being driven to the take-off place.

For the tandem paragliding flight, you don't need any previous experience. If weather permits you can even take control of the glider and manoeuvre it under the supervision of your expert instructor.

All the pilots are fully trained and certified by the Swiss Paragliding Association, making sure you have a safe outing with a seasoned expert.

Tuo mecanizado, os pilotos são óptimos mas de tanto fazerem subidas e descidas já o fazem de forma mecanizada e sem emoção.

O dia estava nublado, nada a dizer. Tivemos que esperar o que se tona normal. A descida apesar de contratado até 30m, foi uma descida de 7m, tudo a correr pois estavam a ficar atrasados e queriam despachar. Assim não vale pois quem paga a descida quer desfrutar e não ser despachado.

Amazing! Worth ever penny

Everything was great except the part where we were suppose to get our photos and videos. It was requested with follow up by the company and instructors but in the end we did not receive the videos and pictures via email/link as said by the team.

Worth your money!!

Paragliding is something you should definitly do if you have the money to do it. A thing to keep in mind is that photo's and video's that are taken during the paragliding, taken by the newest GoPro, cost an additional 40 CHF. Recommended is to take these for sure, you can look back at it and they are of awesome quality.

I had an amazing flight with my tandem instructor. We were up flying for a long time, we flew across mountains and he took time to explain things which was nice. I did some mistakes initially and did not run the whole way during take-off which made him upset. In my defense first timers tend to do mistakes, but later he explained it for safety reasons. But once we took off it was amazing. Maybe I will fly with the same instructor again, but this time I will run!!

There are no words for it. Before you can feel nervous but once you are in the air it's literally fearless. I don't consider myself afraid of heights but I do respect them, paragliding is even relaxing. For those who are thinking it twice, don't! Just do it.
