Paragliding tandem flight over the Allgäu

Paragliding tandem flight over the Allgäu

A tandem paragliding flight over the Allgäu is a very special and unforgettable experience during a holiday in Füssen-Weißensee. Accompanied by an experienced pilot, you fly for about half an hour over the picturesque foothills of the Alps, enjoy a feeling of limitless freedom and marvel at sights such as Neuschwanstein Castle from the air.  

Very close to Weißensee, in neighboring Schwangau, is the 1881 meter-high Tegelberg, which invites you to sports and leisure activities all year round. Numerous attractive hiking trails for every fitness level lead through the magnificent mountain nature and at the foot of the Tegelberg there is a summer toboggan run and other entertainment attractions that guarantee lots of fun for the whole family. In the cold months, the family ski area on Tegelberg offers winter sports fans everything their hearts desire. And for hang gliders and paragliders, the mountain is considered an aviation mecca because it offers the perfect opportunity for an unforgettable flight over Neuschwanstein Castle. This is now not just reserved for experienced pilots, as four flight schools on Tegelberg offer tandem paragliding flights for everyone. Accompanied by a trained paragliding instructor, you can soar through the air like a bird and enjoy the magnificent view over the vast foothills of the Alps. We will explain in more detail below how a paragliding tandem flight on Tegelberg works.

This can be done, for example, at the Tegelberg flight school on the telephone number 08368/9143019. . The flight school will then call you again in the morning on the day of the flight and let you know whether the flight can take place as planned. This depends heavily on the weather; If there is strong wind or rain, it must be moved. If there is the green light, you will meet with a DHV-certified flight instructor at Tegelberg at the agreed time. All you need is warm clothing and sturdy shoes. First you take the Tegelbergbahn up to the mountain station at a height of 1720 meters, where the starting point is located. The flight instructor will provide you with equipment that meets the latest safety standards and will explain everything you need to know about the upcoming flight. Then you can get started: You sit in front of the pilot and can look forward to a limitless view over the vast foothills of the Alps with its meadows, mountains and lakes.
