Details
Make your dream of flying come true! Our thermal flight over the summit of the Gerlitzen is a highlight for all panorama fans looking for that little extra bit of adventure. With good thermals, we circle upwards like a bird. Depending on the thermal conditions, we can reach up to 200 to 300 m above the summit. During the flight, you can enjoy the view of three different lakes, Ossiacher See, Wörthersee and Faaker See, from above. Let yourself be enchanted by the beautiful landscape and experience an unforgettable flight.
