Interlaken is a premier destination for paragliding enthusiasts. The region's unique topography and favorable wind conditions make it an ideal spot for tandem flyers to experience the thrill of paragliding.
One of the most popular paragliding experiences in Interlaken begins in Beatenberg, a scenic area overlooking Lake Thun. If you're up for this activity, you're transported from Interlaken to the launch site in Beatenberg, where you receive a safety briefing and are equipped for the flight.
Accompanied by a professional pilot, you'll take off and glide effortlessly over the stunning landscape, enjoying panoramic views of the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains. The flight concludes with a gentle landing in Interlaken.
It's advisable to book your flight in advance, especially during peak tourist seasons, to secure your preferred time slot. Most providers offer packages that include transportation to the launch site, equipment, and professional guidance throughout the experience.
Seraina’s Tip: For an unforgettable experience, consider scheduling your flight during the early morning or late afternoon. These times often provide the most stable weather conditions and the softest light, enhancing the breathtaking views of Interlaken and the surrounding Alps.
