Tandem flight

Together with a professional tandem pilot, you can take off on your unique tandem flight in just a few steps. Glide almost weightlessly through the air and enjoy breathtaking views of Lake Traunsee and the surrounding mountains.

Whether young or old, a paragliding tandem flight is an unforgettable experience from childhood to old age. During a paragliding tandem flight, you fly as a passenger with an experienced pilot who controls the paraglider and gives you all the necessary instructions.

No previous experience is required, as the pilot will explain everything and take care of everything. Flights usually last around 15-20 minutes, but can last longer depending on weather conditions and thermals.
