There’s no better view of the Swiss Alps than the one from above, which is why many travelers are choosing to hang glide over them these days. Hang gliding in Interlaken has become a popular attraction in Switzerland thanks to sweeping views and epic aerial feats, so why not give it a try next time you’re in the area?
Outfits like Bumblebee offer breathtaking flights overtop the mountains around Interlaken, taking you across alpine peaks and pristine lakes surrounding the hills. You’ll spend a few hours learning the ropes, of course, before hitting the skies. Trained instructors will guide you through the steps of hang gliding and provide you with all the safety skills you need for a fun and happy flight.
Once in the air, a guide will be right there with you on your first time up, so there’s no need to fret if you aren’t confident in your ability to swerve around a peak. Many outfits will even pick you up at your hotel and take you to the gliding spot so you don’t have to worry about finding your way there.
It’s definitely a unique opportunity for the thrillseekers out there and hang gliding is the perfect way to take in as much of Switzerland’s beauty as you can in one epic flight.
