Description
On this tandem flight, you'll get to know the stunning surroundings around Davos from a unique bird's-eye view. Together with an experienced paragliding pilot, you'll embark on an adventure in the skies. The takeoff spot is on Jakobshorn, above Davos, where the thermals are ideal for paragliding. The beautiful alpine scenery will enchant you throughout your flight.
You'll meet your guide in Davos, and together you'll take the Jakobsbahn up. At the takeoff point, your tandem pilot will give you a safety briefing and introduce you to paragliding basics. You and your pilot will take off, and soon you'll experience weightlessness. You'll fly together over the fantastic landscape around Davos, gaining about 1000 meters in altitude before landing again in Davos.
The winter landing site is located right next to the valley run by the Carjöl chairlift (directly by the chairlift and just a 5-minute walk from the Jakobshorn valley station and Davos Platz train station). So after Ski&Fly, you won't lose any time and can head straight back to the slopes.
Please allow around 2 hours for the entire activity.
