“This was the absolute highlight of an already amazing trip to Switzerland! You HAVE to do this!”

“The experience of truly seeing the world from a bird’s-eye view brought tears to my eyes.”

“I am so afraid of heights but was blessed to be on this trip to Switzerland with my husband and 11 year old son so I took the leap! Hands down one of the most amazing experiences!”

YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

How does it work?

We take a short walk to our take-off area (a 10 minute uphill walk from Mürren), where your pilot will provide a comprehensive briefing. There is no jumping and no cliff edge – you simply take a few running steps and the paraglider lifts you and your pilot into the air, where you will sit comfortably while soaring over the Alps!

What is included?

  • Insurance
  • Pick-up from booking agent or hotel in Lauterbrunnen
  • Complimentary drink after your flight at Airtime Café in Lauterbrunnen. Choice of coffee, tea, local beer or a glass of Swiss wine

Is transport included?

We can collect you from Lauterbrunnen and give you a ride to the Schilthornbahn cablecar station in Stechelberg. You will then take a cablecar to Murren – this cable car is NOT included in the flight price.

You are welcome to make your own way to Murren and meet your pilots directly there – making the most of your cablecar ticket! A single journey Stechelberg – Murren takes 10 minutes and is 11.40chf.

*We recommend that guests check their travel pass, as the journey may be covered*

Where do we meet?

We can pick you up in Lauterbrunnen and give you a ride to the Schilthornbahn cablecar station (cablecar journey to Murren is not included in flight price, see above). You can also meet your pilot directly in Mürren at the Schilthorn cablecar station.

Where do we land?

Just next to the Schilthornbahn cablecar station, in Stechelberg. We can give you a ride back to Lauterbrunnen, or if you are feeling especially energised from your flight, the walk along the valley takes less than 1 hour! Based in Mürren? Simply hop on the cablecar.

How long is the flight?

The flight time is approximately 15-20 minutes, depending on thermic conditions. Our Double Airtime flight is just that – double the airtime, at 30-40 minutes. Our pilots are not restricted by time and endeavour to ensure the flight lasts as long as the conditions allow – normally longer than our minimum timings.

How high is the flight?

We take off in Mürren at 1650m, around 850metres above our landing field in Stechelberg (800m); and we are able to soar much higher, using thermals, if conditions allow!

Can I take a camera?

Yes, as long as it is a compact camera/GoPro and can be secured to you. No DSLRs, removable lenses or phones, for safety reasons.

Can I take a bag?

Yes, if it is a small bag. If it is too large to fly with, you can simply send it down via cable car for a few francs (ask at the Schilthornbahn cablecar station for details), and collect it at landing!

Do I need to be fit?

You don’t need to be an athlete, but you do need to be able to take a few running steps to take off.

What should I wear?

Wear what you would wear to hike. Layered clothing, and good shoes (no flip flops!).

What is the age limit?

There isn’t one! We suggest a minimum age of 5 for kids, and there is NO upper age limit.

What is the weight limit?

100kg / 220lbs

Can I fly with my wife/kid/dog?

No, I am afraid not – just one person per pilot.

I’ve never done this before, is that ok?

Yes! You don’t need any experience – you will be flying with a highly experienced pilot who will brief you throughly.

How much is the photo/video package?

Photos are 30CHF; photos AND video are 40CHF. There is no need to book beforehand, you can decide after the flight if you would like them and the pilot will give you a USB stick, or load them directly onto your phone (if compatible).

How do I pay?

1 – Prebook online with a credit card, on our website, to ensure you have the date and time you want; or 2 – Pay directly with your pilot after your flight.

My friend wants to watch, is that possible?

Yes! We suggest that spectators wait at the landing field in Stechelberg, next to the Schilthornbahn cable car station, for the best view of the flight.
