Paragliding in Kandersteg

by eurotravels - last update: Jan 15, 2005

Take off site

This is at Allmenalp 600 m (2000 feet) above the village. In the U.K peak district most of ours are around 100 metres. On the first day my heart was beating so hard it was hurting!
Tandem Paragliding

Tandem flight

You could always try a tandem flight.

This is my husband enjoying his flight.

Powerlines

Powerlines and paragliders definately don't mix, so this was a bit hair-raising!

 I keep an eye on Kandersteg through the Bernerhof's webcam. Looks like your room was right by the camera!

 Well, if we weren't tempted before, we will be now! My only emotion about your pics is envy.
