Paragliding tandem flight Upper Valais
Welcome to the sunniest region of German-speaking Switzerland, Valais! Tandem paragliding in Valais is a rarity, as thermal flights can be booked here all year round. Not only will you be enchanted by the view of the mountain panorama, but often also by the weather. The mountains - including the world-famous Matterhorn and a further 21 four-thousand-metre peaks - regularly provide dry and warm weather. Ideal conditions for a paragliding tandem flight in Valais near Fiesch and Brig, especially for paragliding thermal flights.
With a bit of luck and good thermals, we have a magnificent view of the Aletsch Glacier after take-off. Provided you have skis or a snowboard with you, your paragliding flight starts at the Riederalp or Belalp mountain station at over 3,100 meters, otherwise at the middle station. You land in the valley at an altitude of 700 meters.
Paragliding Valais flight offer
The best way to combine your paragliding tandem flight in Valais with a day of skiing on the Belalp is to take a 45-minute paragliding flight to Brig in the evening. Of course, the impressive mountain panorama with the world-famous mountains is a highlight at any time of year! For all those who are booking a paragliding flight for the first time, we recommend the panoramic flight. All flight enthusiasts or people who have already completed a flight with a paraglider will be thrilled by the thermal flight will be thrilled. And if one flight is not enough, book a private pilot and get your money's worth.

It was a truly memorable experience. A big thank you to pilot Fritz Fankhauser for his expert guidance and care (and also to co-pilot Peter Gempeler). He shared a wealth of knowledge and experience. The flight went smoothly and was very impressive. Fritz was completely attentive to my wishes (and how I was feeling during the flight).
I highly recommend both pilots.
Best regards,
Gustav Thoma

A highly recommended paragliding scenic flight with Renato. I was extremely satisfied and felt completely safe. Renato is a true professional, very experienced, and a great guy! The flight was a ton of fun and a fantastic experience. Thank you—I highly recommend it.

It was awesome. We had such a beautiful day. The flight was way easier than I expected. Patrick also answered a lot of my questions, and it was really interesting to learn all that. I highly recommend it.

I booked a tandem paragliding flight on very short notice, and everything went perfectly. It was my first time, even though I’m afraid of heights. The pilot did such a great job that I wasn’t scared at all. I was able to enjoy the flight to the fullest and would book another one in a heartbeat.

It was a very great experience! The pilot (Pesche) made a very professional impression on me and I felt very well looked after. The flight was more beautiful than I could have imagined and the maneuvers flown were extremely exciting to witness.
