Tour programme

Meeting & Preparation: We meet at the Lachat chairlift where you can take a break from skiing. There we will give you the equipment.

Start & Flight: Once attached to the wing together with your instructor, you will only need to take a few steps to take off, carried by the updrafts. After the 15 min (approx.) descent, you will land gently on the landing zone.

After Landing: We will land where we took off. You can take your time to get over your emotions, and if you want, go back for another session of ski!
