Frequently asked questions

What's the most intense moment of the flight?
The launch off the cliff edge is where most first-timers get the biggest adrenaline hit. You go from standing to full glide in seconds, with the Lauterbrunnen Valley dropping away beneath you.
Do I need to be afraid of heights to enjoy this?
A healthy respect for altitude helps, but fear of heights rarely stops people from finishing the flight. Once airborne, the sensation shifts from vertigo to open-air freedom very quickly.
How long are you actually in the air?
The flight runs 30 minutes. That's enough time to clear the initial adrenaline rush and actually take in the valley, the waterfalls and the surrounding peaks.
Is the meeting point always the same?
No. The exact launch site depends on weather conditions on the day. Switzerland Paragliding sends the confirmed location by SMS the day before your activity.

Practical info

Season

May – September

Equipment

Dress in layers: temperatures drop at altitude even in summer, so a windproof jacket over your regular clothes makes the 30-min flight far more comfortable. Closed-toe shoes are essential, as you run a few steps on launch.

Getting there

The meeting point is weather-dependent and confirmed by SMS the day before, so no need to travel to a fixed spot in advance. Lauterbrunnen is reachable by train from Interlaken Ost in roughly 20 minutes.
