Fly like a bird<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We use the thermals (rising, warm air) that can usually be found from spring to autumn. To stay in the so-called \u201ethermal bubble\u201c, we turn circles like a bird or as we know it from gliders. You can climb up to 3000 metres and see nature from the perspective of a bird with a magnificent view of the surroundings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Paragliding tandem flying is very diverse!<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

From a quiet \u201epleasure flight\u201c to a longer \u201ethermal flight\u201c to a \u201ecross-country flight\u201c, there is something for everyone. If you need even more adrenalin, you can fly sporty wingovers or steep spirals over 3 Gs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\u201eOnce you've experienced flying,
you will walk the earth forever,
with your eyes turned heavenwards.
Because that's where you were and that's where
you will be drawn back again and again.\u201c<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

  • We fly daily on all good flying days. You can easily arrange your flight appointment with us via our contact form, by phone, e-mail, WhatsApp or SMS.

    <\/li>
  • The evening before your flight date, we will do a final weather check and, if necessary, consult with you again. If the weather is not suitable for flying, a new date must be arranged. Of course, vouchers remain valid.
    If you are unable to keep your appointment, please let us know in good time. Otherwise your appointment remains binding.

    <\/li>
  • You will receive a detailed briefing from your pilot at the launch site. You should allow a total of around 2 hours for your flight.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    • Our take-off and landing sites are directly accessible by car. Therefore, there are no additional charges, e.g. for mountain railways.

      <\/li>
    • In principle, transport from the landing site to the launch site takes place in our guests' vehicle. There should be enough space in the car for one pilot including equipment (larger rucksack). For a pair tandem flight, space for two pilots is required. It is therefore helpful to bring a companion who can drive the car back to the landing site during your flight. If this is not possible, please let us know in good time so that we can find another option.

      For example, it is often possible to take a ride on a subsequent flight, we can organise a local transport company (additional costs \u20ac30) or you can round off your flight with a nice hike.

      <\/p><\/li>

    • The meeting point is always the car park at the landing site, see directions.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

      Our flying sites are located in the greater Freiburg and Basel area and are easily accessible. The Hochblauen (1164 metres above sea level) near Badenweiler and the Kandel (1241 metres above sea level) near Waldkirch are among the most popular paragliding mountains in the Black Forest. Both flying sites offer wonderful views over the Rhine Valley and the Black Forest as well as first-class flying conditions.<\/p>


      We also have other flying sites nearby in Alsace and the Jura.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
