Paragliding Over the Lauterbrunnen Valley
Activity Details
Calling all adrenaline junkies! At the indicated time, we'll meet at Mürren Gondola Station. Are you ready to fly above one of Switzerland's most famous and most beautiful valleys?
From Mürren, we'll take a cable car up 2,600 metres (8,530 ft) to Birg, a 10-minute hike from the take-off area. Before taking off, we'll go over a quick flight briefing to make sure we're familiar with all safety requirements.
Once you're ready, you'll run, jump, and take off! Accompanied by a professional tandem pilot, you'll paraglide between the two majestic walls of Lauterbrunnen Valley, with the iconic Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau peaks in sight.
During your flight, you'll also soar over the picturesque village of Gimmewald and the Trummelbach Waterfalls, a series of 10 glacier-sourced waterfalls that will leave you jaw-dropped!
Depending on the option you choose, we'll either land after 15-20 or 30-40 minutes of flight time, bringing the activity to an end in Stechelberg, where we'll say our goodbyes after a total of around 2 hours together.
Winter Tour
Please note that if you take this tour in wintertime, we'll take off from Schilgrat, at 2,100 metres (6,889 ft) instead of Birg. To get there, we'll take a chairlift from Mürren.

- Basic Flight: 15 to 20 minutes
