Itinerary
Experience the ultimate tandem thermal paragliding flight in Zermatt, soaring in front of the Matterhorn and the spectacular Swiss Alps. Launching from Riffelberg/Blauherd, you'll use thermals to stay in the air longer and fly above one of the world's most spectacular alpine landscapes. Keep your eyes open—you may spot ibex, chamois, marmots, or birds of prey. No experience is required. Your certified tandem pilot will guide you throughout the flight, allowing you to relax and enjoy this unforgettable adventure. Paragliding is weather dependent. If weather or safety conditions prevent the flight, you will receive a full refund. We may reschedule your flight to another time / day to ensure the best possible experience. Please note: The one-way mountain railway ticket to take-off is not included. Your pilot will help you purchase the correct ticket at the meeting point. Holders of a Swiss Travel Pass, Swiss Half Fare Card, PeakPass, or valid ski pass may receive a discount or free transport. Mountain railway tickets are non-refundable if the flight is cancelled due to weather. Available from June to September, when alpine thermals provide the best conditions for extended flights
