Tandem Paragliding over the Aletsch Arena - Eagle

The eagle is at home in the mountains and a master of thermals. Following its example, your pilots use the upwinds during this flight to climb freely like bird and to stay in the air even longer. From up there you have a breathtaking view of the Aletsch Glacier and the surrounding mountain landscape.

Tour programme
The meeting point is directly at our flight school in Fiesch, where you can also park your car for free. From there we take the cable car or the shuttle bus to get to the starting point. Depending on the flight conditions we fly from Fiescheralp, Riederalp or Bellwald. At the launch site, the pilot explains the procedure of the flight and prepares the equipment. Now you are ready to start. After a few quick steps, you are already in the air. Since you are sitting in front of the pilot on a tandem flight, you can now just sit back and enjoy the view over the Aletsch arena. Landing on the landing field at the flight school is completely uncomplicated with the help of the pilot. You run a few steps across the meadow until you come to a standstill and are back at the starting point where we met in the beginning.
