With us, even the youngest can take off at a special children's price. Gliding from the summit of the Gerlitzen mountain, over the Ossiacher See to Bodensdorf, the young high-flyers feel the unique feeling of freedom and their dream of flying becomes reality. With our knowledgeable and experienced pilots, the kids are in the best hands and will experience an unforgettable adventure.
Tour programme- Meeting & Preparation:We meet at our
base in Bodensdorf, where you can also park your car. From here, we take our shuttle bus to the
Kanzelbahn lift in Annenheim. With the cable car, we reach the starting point on the summit, where we prepare the equipment. Before we start, the kids will also receive a detailed
safety briefing from the pilot.
- Start and Flight:As soon as everybody is ready, the children will be attached to the paraglider together with the pilot and are ready to go. After a few quick steps over the grass, the paraglider is already airborne. Now the
kids can simply lean back and enjoy the view over the Lake Ossiach and the surrounding valleys. During the flight, the pilot will take photos, which you can then have a look at and purchase after the flight.
- After Landing:After
20 to 30 minutes of flight time, we land again in Bodensdorf, directly at our original meeting point. Under the pilot's instruction, the
landing is soft and easy. Depending on the wind conditions, we land either sitting or running. Spectators are very welcome and can watch the flight from the landing site.
