What to expect

This flight isn't about altitude records, it's about the feeling: a few steps, lift-off, floating. Your pilot explains what the wing is doing along the way, and if you like, you can take the controls for a moment.

It fits nicely into a free afternoon. Afterwards you'll know whether flying has got you hooked – often the high-altitude or thermal flight follows on the next visit.

  • Take-off at the Elfer

    The gondola takes you up to the launch site at around 1,800 m.

  • Gentle glide

    A steady flight without a manoeuvre programme – ideal for beginners.

  • Easy to plan

    Around 45 minutes in total, also bookable at short notice.

Frequently asked questions

Can’t find your question? Message us – we reply personally.

Is the trial flight okay if I'm nervous?

Yes. The flight is calm and steady, and your pilot adapts everything to how you feel. Many guests who were nervous beforehand land with a big grin.

How is it different from the high-altitude flight?

Both take off at the Elfer. On the trial flight you glide straight into the valley; on the high-altitude flight you stay up longer and use the height for extra turns.

Can I give the trial flight as a gift?

Yes, there is a dedicated trial flight voucher. It is valid for three years.

What happens in bad weather?

Safety comes first. If wind, rain or thunderstorms rule out a flight, we reschedule it free of charge.

What should I bring?

Sturdy ankle-high shoes, windproof jacket, long trousers, sunglasses – in winter also gloves and warm layers.
