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!

So Amazing We Did It Twice!
nicolelH4228FG,Jun 14, 2026

5.00⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My daughter and I had such an amazing experience with Ben and Tom that we actually went paragliding twice during our trip! I was honestly nervous because I’m afraid of heights, but both pilots immediately put me at ease with their professionalism, confidence, and sense of humor. They made us feel safe, comfortable, and excited from the moment we arrived. The views over the Swiss Alps were absolutely breathtaking, and the flights were the highlight of our Switzerland vacation. Ben and Tom were fun, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. We laughed the entire time, even yodeling in the air and trying a few acrobatic tricks on our second flight! The fact that we loved it enough to come back and do it again says it all. If you’re considering paragliding, don’t hesitate—you’ll be in great hands with Ben and Tom. Thank you both for giving us memories we’ll never forget!
DO IT!!!

5.00Absolutely amazing experience! My pilot Michael (Bob) was the best! Super confident and personable and made the flight so fun! Highly recommend trying the roller coaster part at the end! Such an easy meet up and set up process. They cut right to the chase so you don’t think to much about it and really enjoy the ride. Murren is definitely the best place to do it, especially on a sunny day. Also, wear sun glasses so your eyes aren’t watering!!
AMAZING! DO IT!!

5.00This is probably one of the best experiences we’ve had. The pilots calmed our nervousness with their witty humor. Though the ride was supposed to be for 30 minutes, they gave us extra time. Nice people!
So thrilled I did this tour even though I’m afraid of heights/ falling

5.00This was an absolutely fantastic experience. I have a fear of falling but was hoping I’d be able to go ahead with the experiencing this in one of the premier paragliding locations in the world. My wife also went and expected to be nervous but wasn’t. Michale my guide was super helpful- I told him in that I was a bit nervous both before the flight and shortly after takeoff and he was so good. It still took my brain a few minutes to settle in and accept it and then I really enjoyed everything. I was ready to do it again when I landed. And I’d absolutely recommend this. If you have any desire to do this it’s an awesome experience.
You must do this when in Murren!!

5.00My wife and I had a fantastic experience flying with Roman and Buzz. We are in our late sixties and the experience was super. We elected to have the longer airtime which was a great choice because it allowed us to see a great deal more of the valley.
Breath taking experience!

5.00My trip was incredible! I’m 69 and had never done this before. From the minute I showed up, I was made to feel right at home. My pilot, Mike, was knowledgable, friendly and extremely professional. He handled the equipment and instructions. He made it so easy. The gliding it self was breath taking. The view, the gliding…. just phenomenal. He took very good pics and a couple nice videos. I loved this entire experience!
