Tandem Paragliding from the Pilatus - Pilatus Flight

Our Pilatus flight is the best paragliding experience in Central Switzerland! Our beloved local mountain of Lucerne offers everything a paraglider's heart desires. On clear days we enjoy a breathtaking view of the entire Alpine panorama to the South, the beautiful landscape around Lake Lucerne and the Napfbergland with a view over the Mittelland to the Jura chain. Simply amazing!

Tour programme
- Meeting and Preparation: Please arrive punctually at the Pilatus valley station, which we take to get to the starting point. There the pilot prepares the paragliding equipment, hands over the helmet and harness and explains everything about take-off and landing.
- Start and Flight: The take-off is easy: On the command of the pilot you start (depending on weather conditions 5 to 20m) and after a few steps we smoothly take off. Then you sit back in your comfortable paraglider seat and enjoy the flight experience. You have your hands free to take pictures. For those who like action, the pilot is willing to fly impressive manoeuvers. He tries to extend your flight to the maximum time and looks for the updrafts - but you can always express your wishes. If you want to steer the glider yourself, this is often possible. The smooth landing rounds off the paragliding experience. The landing site is only a few minutes' walk from the meeting point.
