Details
You can expect a relaxed flight in spectacular alpine scenery from the Bischling mountain, one of Austria's most popular mountains for paragliding. Just sit back and enjoy the view and the indescribable feeling of flying like an eagle while the tandem pilot steers the paraglider safely back down into the valley.
Tour programme- Meeting and Preparation:
For this flight, we meet at our office close to the bottom station of the Ikarus cable car in Werfenweng. If you arrive by car, free parking is available at the meeting point. Together we take the cable car up to the Bischling. On the way up you can get to know the pilots and clarify open questions. The take-off site is right next to the top station of the cable car.
- Start and Flight:
Before take-off, fill out our flight ticket. Then the instruction by the experienced tandem pilots follows, who explain to you, what the flight will be like. For the take-off, we take a few quick steps against the wind until we are in the air. You will enjoy the breathtaking view sitting in front of the pilot. For all those who want to experience some action, the tandem pilots can fly aerobatic figures, during which you can feel the centrifugal forces. At the end of the flight, we land at the landing site near the bottom station of the Ikarus cable car. For you as passengers, landing is not at all a challenge. You simply follow the pilot's instructions, stretch out your legs and land in a seated position, cushioned by the harness.
