What our guests say

"I booked a tandem paragliding flight on very short notice, and everything went perfectly. It was my first time, even though I'm afraid of heights. The pilot did such a great job that I wasn't scared at all. I was able to enjoy the flight to the fullest and would book another one in a heartbeat."

- Tanja

"It was an amazing experience! The pilot (Pesche) came across as very professional, and I felt completely at ease. The flight was even more beautiful than I could have imagined, and it was incredibly exciting to witness the maneuvers he performed."

- Niclo Brodbeck

"I have no complaints! The pilot gave a great introduction and clear explanations. He was calm and easy to understand. I felt very safe and comfortable from start to finish. An absolutely amazing experience!!!"

Description

Description of the experience

Unique views of the Alpstein massif

Thanks to its striking rock formations and rolling hills, the Appenzell region is one of the most beautiful flying areas in Eastern Switzerland. The flight usually takes off from Ebenalp, a place known worldwide for its spectacular scenery. As soon as you take off with your pilot, the famous Äscher-Wildkirchli mountain inn lies at your feet. As you glide gently toward Wasserauen, your gaze sweeps over Lake Seealpsee all the way to the summit of Säntis. The stable thermals and the impressive steep cliffs of the Alpstein make this tandem flight an unforgettable experience for nature lovers and adrenaline seekers alike. Since you’re comfortably seated in the harness, you can fully concentrate on taking photos or simply enjoying the pure feeling of freedom.

Book flexibly with attractive upgrades
At Flugzentrum.ch, you can book this first-class adventure easily and securely. Our standard offer includes the classic panoramic gliding flight, which is ideal for beginners. Would you like to stay in the air longer? Between April and September, you can easily select an upgrade to a thermal flight in our booking tool, where your pilot uses the updrafts to carry you even higher above the peaks. For couples, friends, or colleagues, we also offer the “DUO Couples Flight” option: Here, you take off simultaneously with two pilots and two gliders to share the experience side by side in the sky. You’ll meet your pilot directly at the valley station to head to the launch site together.
