What To Expect
A paragliding tandem flight in front of the Matterhorn - taking off from Riffelberg or Blauherd at 2600m (weather dependent). Amazing views of Zermatt and the surrounding mountains; landing back in Zermatt. This is our popular introductory flight!
Our pilots will be talking you through everything, no experience is needed to come and fly with us - an unforgettable experience!
Paragliding is weather dependent. If we have to cancel the flight due to weather or safety reasons, you will be fully refunded. Sometimes we also have to move it to a different day or time to guarantee you a nice flight - we reserve the right to do so.
Please note that the oneway cable car / railway ticket to takeoff is not included in our flightprice. Our pilots will happily assist you in buying the ticket if needed upon meeting at the station - no need to organise that ticket beforehand.
If you travel on a SwissPass or halffare, make sure to bring it along as this will give you a 50% discount on that ticket up to takeoff. In the PeakPass or Skipass the ride is included.
In case of cancellation we will not be refunding any money for transportation.
