Soar Like a Bird: Hang Gliding in Lucerne, Canton of Lucerne
Experience the highest hanggliding tandem flight in Switzerland from up to 2000 m, soaring for 20–60 minutes like an eagle above lakes and peaks - faster and more intense than paragliding as your pilot adapts to your wishes for a fast, wild run or a peaceful glide; the ride up on the nostalgic funicular and the world‑first CabriO to Mt Stanserhorn makes the approach as memorable as the silent flight, and the wonderful summit view over whole central Switzerland inspires before you gently take off into the third dimension - an unforgettable adventure when you visit Lucerne in the Canton of Lucerne to fly from Stanserhorn.
