Soar in front the iconic Matterhorn and immerse yourself in the breathtaking alpine scenery of Zermatt. This thrilling paragliding adventure offers a unique perspective of Switzerland's stunning landscapes as you glide through the crisp mountain air.
In order to fly an extended flight, we need the help of the thermal air. For this reason, the flight is only possible from June until September.
With guidance from experienced instructors, enjoy a safe and exhilarating flight, capturing unforgettable moments along the way. Optional photo and video packages are available to help you relive the adventure long after you touch down.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
We meet our guests directly at the bottom station of the Gornergrat railway. Its across the road from the main trainstation of Zermatt. Please wait outside the station under the clock
What to expect
Launching from Riffelberg/Blauherd, you'll use thermals to stay in the air longer and fly above one of the world's most spectacular alpine landscapes. Keep your eyes open—you may spot ibex, chamois, marmots, or birds of prey.
No experience is required. Your certified tandem pilot will guide you throughout the flight, allowing you to relax and enjoy this unforgettable adventure.
Paragliding is weather dependent. If weather or safety conditions prevent the flight, you will receive a full refund. We may reschedule your flight to another time / day to ensure the best possible experience.
Please note: The one-way mountain railway ticket to take-off is not included. Your pilot will help you purchase the correct ticket at the meeting point. Holders of a Swiss Travel Pass, Swiss Half Fare Card, PeakPass, or valid ski pass may receive a discount or free transport. Mountain railway tickets are non-refundable if the flight is cancelled due to weather.
Available from June to September, when alpine thermals provide the best conditions for extended flights
