Launch from a ridge above St. Moritz and glide 15–20 minutes over the Engadine valley. This guided tandem flight pairs minimal hiking with panoramic alpine views and an optional photo/video package.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
Standing on a sun-warmed alpine shelf above St. Moritz, the valley opens like a living map: frozen lakes in winter, glass-blue basins in summer, ridgelines that dare you to step forward. The pilot tightens the harness, runs through the lines, and with a few brisk steps you and the wing lift into the clean Engadine air. For 15–20 minutes the valley unfolds beneath you — villages, braided rivers, and the serrated teeth of the Bernina range — while the pilot trims the glider and offers brief hands-on control if you want it.
