Description
Hover in tandem high above the beautiful Valais nature and mountain landscape. This paragliding flight starts from Rosswald, the famous sun terrace above Brig. The canton of Valais is probably the sunniest region in Switzerland. This region is known for its special thermal conditions that will help you take off with your paraglider.
At the launch site in Rosswald, your tandem pilot will instruct and secure you so that your flight goes smoothly. After the instruction you will take off from more than 2300 m above sea level. You will enjoy a breathtaking view over the Rhone valley and the famous Simplon.
The landing takes place on the historic Chavez meadow, from where Geo Chavez was the first person to cross the main ridge of the Alps in an airplane in 1910! From here you start your return journey.
