We take a short walk to our take-off area (a 10 minute uphill walk from Mürren), where your pilot will provide a comprehensive briefing. There is no jumping and no cliff edge – you simply take a few running steps and the paraglider lifts you and your pilot into the air, where you will sit comfortably while soaring over the Alps!
The cablecar journey to Murren is NOT included in the flight price. *
You are welcome to make your own way to Murren and meet your pilot directly there – thus making the most of your cablecar ticket!
Guests travelling by car should park at the Stechelberg Schilthornbahn Cablecar Station and meet us either there or in Murren.
If you have a JungfrauPass then you need to travel from Lauterbrunnen village via Grutschalp, as your pass doesn’t cover the Schilthornbahn.
Confused?! Don’t worry! Just WhatsApp us.
A single journey Stechelberg – Murren takes 10 minutes and is 11.40chf.

There isn’t one! We suggest a minimum age of 5 for kids, and there is NO upper age limit.
90kg / 200lbs. This is not absolutely set in stone, it can also be affected by flying conditions on the day, and body shape – the harness must fit you safely. Safety always comes first and, although we will try our best to take you flying, we do reserve the right to cancel flights if you are on or above the weight limit.
Wear what you would wear to hike. Layered clothing, and good shoes (no flip flops!).
Yes, if it is a small bag. If it is too large to fly with, you can simply send it down via cable car for a few francs (ask at the Schilthornbahn cablecar station for details), and collect it at landing!
Yes, as long as it is a compact camera/GoPro and can be secured to you. No DSLRs, removable lenses or phones, for safety reasons.
The flight time is approximately 15-20 minutes, depending on thermic conditions. Our Double Airtime flight is just that – double the airtime, at 30-40 minutes. Our pilots are not restricted by time and endeavour to ensure the flight lasts as long as the conditions allow – normally longer than our minimum timings.
We take off in Mürren at 1650m, around 850 metres above our landing field in Stechelberg (800m); and we are able to soar much higher, using thermals, if conditions allow!
Just next to the Schilthornbahn cablecar station, in Stechelberg. We can give you a ride back to Lauterbrunnen, or if you are feeling especially energised from your flight, the walk along the valley takes less than 1 hour! Based in Mürren? Simply hop on the cablecar.
