The highest hanggliding tandemflight in Switzerland. From up to 2000m you fly for 20-60 minutes like an eagle.
Hang gliding is the best way to fly free like a bird. It is faster and more intense than paragliding. Whether fast and wild or just in peace, your pilot adapts to your wishes.
The ride on the nostalgic funicular and the world first CabriO to Mt Stanserhorn is unique. The wonderful view from the summit over whole central Switzerland will inspire you. We gently take off into the third dimension. The silent flight over mountains and lakes will be an unforgettable experience.

What To Expect
The highest hanggliding tandemflight in Switzerland. From up to 2000m you fly for 20-60 minutes like an eagle. Spread your wings! Hang gliding is faster and more dynamic than Paragliding. We fly in a lying position, head first like a bird from Mt Stanserhorn on almost 2000m over a breathtaking panorama of blue lakes and high mountains. Our pilots are professionals and have more than 30 years of experience. No previous experience is necessary. You only need to run 3-4 steps with us at the start and we will take off. Whether fast and upside down or cruising along comfortably, our pilots are happy to adapt to your wishes. The flight lasts a minimum of 20 up to 60 minutes depending on the conditions. We use all our experience and fly with you as long as possible. As an option you get high resolution pictures and videos of your unique adventure. Choose your clothing based on the current weather and temperatures. You are welcome to bring a small backpack for your essentials on the way. It is worth to be there early. The view from up there is breathtaking. After a soft landing in Stans we will take you back to the bottom station of Mt Stanserhorn cable car.

Exhilarating and Unforgettable!

5.00If you're thinking about a hang gliding trip I highly recommend BirdLike Hang Gliding! The scenery at Stanserhorn is stunning and Fredy was terrific. He's responsive to pre-trip questions, was clear about where/when to go and just an all around friendly guy and expert pilot. He gave a nice mix of leisurely gliding and asked before he did some "rock and roll" flying. Exhilarating! I had such a blast! I recommend booking directly with him and buying the photos and videos to relive the unforgettable experience over and over!
We'll be back!

5.00The view was overwhelming and the instructors were so nice, it was a great experience! It was also very nice to be able to fly for a long time regardless of the wind because of the high altitude. I will come back when I come to Switzerland.
Hang gliding with Fredy and Roman was absolutely AMAZING!! My 18 year old granddaughter and I both felt secure and safe!

5.00I had to time of my life! I have always wanted to fly and now I want to fly all the time. It was a life changing experience. I flew with Fredy. We were in the air for about 15-20 minutes.He is a world class pilot and a great guy. I really liked talking with him. I like thrills so he made it like a roller coaster for me, but he can make it perfectly smooth and calm also. Just talk to him and your flight will be exactly what you like. I was really surprised how easy it was. You keep your muscles loose and a loose grip on the handles. We were looking down on a falcon soaring below us. For me, it was an amazing event. For Fredy, it was just another day at work. Lol. I don’t have any words strong enough to recommend this experience. I loved it so much I bought the videos and my new favorite t-shirt. Do it. Be somebody.
Great fun. Staff were...
