Mürren: Paragliding over the Lauterbrunnen Valley
Overview
Available languages
1 hour
Mobile ticket
Meet your professional Airtime Pilots in Mürren and hike to the take-off field where you will receive a briefing from your pilot. Then, simply take some running steps and be in the air in front of the mighty Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau mountains... and over the spectacular Lauterbrunnen valley.
Soaring high above Mürren, witness the Lauterbrunnen valley open up below, with the sheer cliffs and waterfalls seeming close enough to touch as you glide past them like a bird on a tandem paraglide.
Land in Stechelberg, on the valley bottom, next to the Stechelberg Schilthornbahn cable car station - where you can hop on the bus back to Lauterbrunnen or take the lovely waterfall walk back to the village, and walk off some of that adrenaline!

5.00Buzz was awesome, so kind and encouraging! He let me fly the paraglider a bit and also did his best to find thermals to stay aloft. We saw a rare mountain sheep and the photography he did for me was Phenomenal. The weather was too foggy for the first time slot so they moved me to the next and boy was I glad I waited. The company was great and this location cannot be beat, the views were truly awe inspiring with waterfalls, valleys, and Swiss alps as far as the eye could see. Worth every penny and I hope to again someday when I come back to Switzerland for another visit.
Best experience EVER!

5.00I was very hesitant to do this, from being a budget solo traveler to the actual act of paragliding, but I am so unbelievably happy I did it. Toby was an AWESOME guide and I can’t thank him enough for making me feel safe and comfortable. If you’re even slightly considering it, just do it! It’s incredible, truly a once in a lifetime opportunity.
It’s only a once in a lifetime if you let it be!

5.00WOW!!! What an experience! I can't remember my guide's name (she's from Czech Republic) but she was wonderful with me. My husband loved his guide too (from Australia). I had brain surgery a year ago, but was able to run off the cliff and soar like a bird!
Flight of a Lifetime

5.00I was trying to be the brave wife while my husband wanted to do all the flips and experience all the Gs. It looks like a common theme when I look at these reviews. We both came away from the experience awestruck and so glad that we decided to try it. The views could not be better, and occasional mist from the waterfalls just adds another surreal level. I was very nervous about takeoff and landing. Dan, my guide, was reassuring at all times and made it easier than I could have imagined. The takeoff site is a rolling hill with lots of room, and we only needed a couple quick steps before we were airborne. For landing we just had to stand upright, so that was easier yet. My husband did indeed get the flips he was craving too. So whatever you're looking for, I'm sure you'll come away elated. 😁 Highly recommended!
Fabulous first paragliding experience

5.00Excellent first experience paragliding with Airtime! Marika made everything so easy, explaining what to expect and helped ease my nerves. The takeoff and landing were much easier than I had expected based on her explanation. Marika was understanding and didn’t push me to do more than I was comfortable with while still having an amazing flight!
Most exhilarating experience in my life

5.00Nick and Marissa were fabulous, set us at ease and very kind! My husband and I loved it! Don’t eat right before you fly, we both had some nausea.
Best experience!
