Highlights

The highest hanggliding tandemflight in Switzerland. From up to 2000m you fly for 20-60 minutes like an eagle. Hang gliding is the best way to fly free like a bird. It is faster and more intense than paragliding. Whether fast and wild or just in peace, your pilot adapts to your wishes. The ride on the nostalgic funicular and the world first CabriO to Mt Stanserhorn is unique. The wonderful view from the summit over whole central Switzerland will inspire you. We gently take off into the third dimension. The silent flight over mountains and lakes will be an unforgettable experience.

  • 5Stunning view & unforgettable experience

    It was an amazing experience! Definitely something I would not normally do but decided to go out of my comfort zone while on vacation. Fredy was extremely knowledgeable and made me feel very comfortable. I am so glad I took the leap of faith and got to have this adventure.

  • 5Unlike anything else!

    This was an amazing activity. Fredy was professionally and answered and questions about the activity that we had. Fredy has 40 years of Hang gliding experience starting when he was 17. Don’t hesitate to book this adventure. There are not many places in the world that you can book hang gliding. The views the while flying are absolutely unlike anything that you can imagine. We had five participants in Fredy communicated with us to make sure everyone in our group would be able to fly. Also, there is a picture package offered. We purchased these and they are very high-quality images and videos.

  • 5Exhilarating and Unforgettable!

    If you're thinking about a hang gliding trip I highly recommend BirdLike Hang Gliding! The scenery at Stanserhorn is stunning and Fredy was terrific. He's responsive to pre-trip questions, was clear about where/when to go and just an all around friendly guy and expert pilot. He gave a nice mix of leisurely gliding and asked before he did some "rock and roll" flying. Exhilarating! I had such a blast! I recommend booking directly with him and buying the photos and videos to relive the unforgettable experience over and over!

    Wonderful, thrilling experience hang gliding in the Alps!! Spectacular views, hearing cow bells and going through clouds while flying and soaring like a bird over such beautiful terrain was the best!!

About Lucerne

Lucerne is a compact Swiss lake city with a covered wooden bridge, a medieval wall and a ring of mountains, in the heart of Switzerland.

Lucerne sits at the northern end of Lake Lucerne, where the Reuss River flows out under two old wooden bridges. The Chapel Bridge, with its stone water tower and painted roof panels, dates from the fourteenth century, although it was partly rebuilt after a fire in 1993. The old town has painted house fronts, squares and the twin-spired Jesuit church, and the Museggmauer, a wall with nine towers, closes it to the north.

Top-ranked sights in Lucerne: Lake Lucerne (Vierwaldstättersee), Lucerne Old Town, Mt. Pilatus.
