Paragliding

Like a bird in the sky

See the world from above and feel a sense of freedom: paragliding fans are addicted to it. And in the Chiemgau there is almost always a spot somewhere where the wind is favourable. If the backpack is not too heavy for you, you can make the ascent on foot. Otherwise, the Chiemgau mountain railways will take you to the starting point - for example on the Hochfelln in Bergen.

Hike & Fly and tandem flights

If you don't have your own pilot's license, you can still experience the feeling of flying with a paraglider. The experienced tandem pilots take you up into the air and bring you safely back down to the ground. Numerous flight schools in the Chiemgau-Area offer training, thermal training and tandem flights:

Die Rache des Kaiserschmarrn

Achim Joos ist Profi in der Luft und hatte eine Vision: auch andere Menschen fürs Fliegen zu begeistern. Wie könnte das besser klappen als mit einer eigenen Flugschule?
