The tandem flight
Flying over the Glarnerland.
From the «Gumen» and «Kiosk» take-offs you lift off above Braunwald and glide out over the valley and the Glarner Alps. Over 600 m of altitude difference from the take-off, around 10 to 15 minutes in the air, floating like a bird.
The area for tandem flights in Braunwald is one of the best in all of Switzerland. A modern paraglider flies more easily and safely than you might think, a dream for everyone.
