Hang Gliding Interlaken - Tandem Flight
Hang gliding is pure flight. With the wind carrying the wings, you soar like a bird and float silently above the landscape. The feeling is light and unrestrained, every movement guided by air currents. You see the world from a new angle, drifting between mountains, sky and horizon.

You meet your pilot in Interlaken, where you are welcomed and driven up to the launch site high above the two lakes. At the top you receive a clear briefing so you know exactly how take-off, flight and landing will unfold. Then comes the moment: a few running steps downhill, the glider lifts and suddenly you are airborne.
The flight lasts between ten and twenty minutes, depending on wind and weather. During this time you float silently above Interlaken, with the turquoise lakes glistening below and the peaks of the Jungfrau region rising around you. If you want a smooth glide, you can simply enjoy the panorama. If you are in the mood for more thrill, your pilot can add turns and dives that make the ride more dynamic.
The landing is gentle on a grassy field in Interlaken. Afterwards, you return together to the starting point or directly into town. The entire experience, including transfers and preparation, usually takes about two to three hours.

Hanggliding tours can be affected by weather conditions, however it is difficult to predict exactly how a trip will be impacted until the day of the activity. Conditions are monitored carefully to stay within safety limits, and bad weather doesn't necessarily mean cancellation. Weather windows can open up quickly, and close again.
Please make sure we have good contact information for you so we can reach out if your trip is changed or cancelled due to poor conditions.
If we are not able to run your trip, we will try to accommodate you on another date, another activity, or we will issue you a full refund.
