More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You taxi onto grass beside a compact two-seater, the propeller whispering as the Alps roll into view. From the cockpit the city shrinks: Munich’s tiled roofs give way to rivers that dare you to follow their glint upstream, then the land lifts into the ragged spine of the Bavarian Alps where rock and snow trade places with the light.

Confirm weight and ID early
Provide full names, dates of birth, and weights at booking to avoid last-minute delays; pilots require this for safety and weight-and-balance calculations.
