Details
You should not miss a tandem flight from Gaisberg, as Salzburg's local mountain guarantees the best view over the city of Mozart. Like a bird, you fly high above the roofs and see the area from a unique angle. The incomparable feeling of freedom while flying and the fantastic view of the city of Salzburg will have you in absolute awe. If you are a "Sound of Music" fan, this flight also perfect for you, as we fly over some of the spots featured in the popular movie.
Tour programme- Meeting and Preparation:
For this flight, we meet at the top of the Gaisberg mountain. We recommend arriving by bus as there are only a few parking spaces available at the meeting point. The meeting point is also easily reachable by bus line 151 from Salzburg (bus stop "Mirabellplatz") and the landing site in Guggenthal (bus stop "Guggenthal Volksschule"). Before take-off, you fill out our flight ticket. This is followed by a briefing by the experienced tandem pilots, who will explain to you what the flight will be like.
- Start and Flight:
For take-off, we take a few quick steps against the wind until we are in the air. You can then fully enjoy the breathtaking view as you are seated right in front of the pilot. For all those who want to experience some action, the tandem pilots can fly aerobatic figures, during which you can feel the centrifugal forces. At the end of the flight, we land at the landing site in Guggenthal. Landing is not a challenge for you as passengers. You simply follow the pilot's instructions, stretch out your legs and land in a seated position, cushioned by the harness.
