What is the best weather for paragliding? Can you paraglide in rain or wind? And what happens if your tandem flight in Interlaken is cancelled because of bad weather? 🪂☀️🌧️🇨🇭

In Episode 6 of our Most Asked Questions about Paragliding in Interlaken series, Timo Bellen, tandem pilot and Operations Manager at Paragliding Interlaken, answers some of the most frequently asked questions about weather and tandem paragliding in Switzerland.

Weather plays an essential role in paragliding. But perfect paragliding weather doesn't necessarily mean what many first-time passengers think it does.

In this episode, Timo explains what pilots actually look for when assessing the conditions and why professional weather decisions are such an important part of every tandem flight.

☀️ How important is the weather for paragliding?

Very important. Weather conditions influence whether we can fly, where we can take off, how the flight feels and how long we may be able to stay in the air.

Professional tandem pilots consider several factors before deciding whether conditions are suitable for flying.

💨 Can you go paragliding when it's windy?

Paragliders need air movement to fly, so wind itself isn't necessarily a problem.

However, the strength, direction and characteristics of the wind are extremely important.

Too much wind or unsuitable wind conditions can mean that a tandem flight needs to be delayed, rescheduled or cancelled.

Timo explains why it's the pilot – not simply the weather app on your phone – who makes the final decision about whether conditions are suitable.

🌧️ Can you paraglide in the rain?

Rain and paragliding are generally not a good combination.

In this episode, we explain why precipitation matters for a paraglider and what happens when rain or changing weather approaches Interlaken.

So if you wake up on the morning of your flight and see clouds outside, don't automatically assume that your flight is cancelled.

Clouds don't necessarily mean bad paragliding conditions.

❌ What happens if my paragliding flight is cancelled because of the weather?

This is one of the most common concerns when people book paragliding during their Switzerland vacation.

What happens if the weather doesn't cooperate?

Because paragliding is weather dependent, flights may occasionally need to be delayed, rescheduled or cancelled when conditions aren't suitable.

Safety always comes before getting a flight into the air.

Timo explains what happens in this situation and what options guests have if their scheduled tandem flight cannot take place.

🕐 When is the best time of day for paragliding in Interlaken?

Morning or afternoon?

It's one of the questions we're asked all the time.

The answer depends on what kind of flying experience you're looking for and, most importantly, the conditions on that particular day.

Morning flights can offer beautifully calm conditions and spectacular light, while later in the day stronger thermal activity may develop when the sun heats the mountains and valleys.

But there isn't one single time that's always “the best.”

Timo explains what you should consider when choosing the time for your tandem paragliding flight.

📅 What is the best time of year to paraglide in Interlaken?

Spring, summer, autumn or winter?

The good news is that paragliding in Interlaken is possible throughout different seasons of the year, provided the weather conditions are suitable.

☀️ Summer offers green valleys, blue lakes and classic Swiss Alpine scenery.

🌸 Spring combines green landscapes with spectacular snow-covered mountains.

🍂 Autumn can bring incredible visibility, beautiful colors and magical light.

❄️ And winter transforms the Jungfrau Region into an amazing snow-covered landscape.

Every season offers a completely different view of Interlaken from the air.

❄️ Can you paraglide in Interlaken during winter?

Yes!

Paragliding isn't only a summer activity.

Winter tandem paragliding in Interlaken can offer spectacular views of the snow-covered Swiss Alps, Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, with Lake Thun and Lake Brienz below.

🪂 What are the perfect conditions for paragliding?

There's much more to good paragliding weather than simply seeing a blue sky.

Pilots consider factors such as wind, precipitation, clouds, visibility, thermal activity and changing weather patterns before making a decision.

Good paragliding weather is about the conditions in the air, not just how the sky looks from your hotel window.

Part 5 with Mario here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhqEEQ-g3vA

How long is a paragliding flight in Interlaken? What does it feel like? Can you go paragliding in Switzerland in winter? And what will you actually see during your flight? 🪂🇨🇭

In Episode 5 of our Most Asked Questions about Paragliding in Interlaken series, Mario Heller, tandem pilot and Operations Manager at Paragliding Interlaken, answers some of the most common questions about the actual flying experience.

If you've never been paragliding before and want to know exactly what to expect from a tandem paragliding flight in Interlaken, Switzerland, this episode is for you.

🪂 Questions answered in this episode:

How long does a paragliding flight in Interlaken last? ⏱️
Flight duration depends on the type of flight and, importantly, the weather and flying conditions on the day. Mario explains how long you can expect to be in the air and why flight times can vary.

Can you go paragliding in Interlaken during winter? ❄️
Absolutely – paragliding isn't just a summer activity! Winter can offer a completely different experience, with snow-covered mountains, crisp alpine air and spectacular views across the Jungfrau Region.

Mario explains what you should know if you're considering winter paragliding in Switzerland.

What can you see during a tandem paragliding flight in Interlaken? 🏔️
This is one of the reasons Interlaken is such a spectacular place to fly.

From the air, you can experience panoramic views across Interlaken and the Swiss Alps, with Lake Thun and Lake Brienz on either side of the town.

On clear days, the incredible mountain scenery of the Jungfrau Region dominates the horizon, including the famous Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau.

It's a perspective of Interlaken that you simply can't experience from the ground.

What does paragliding actually feel like? 😍
Is it scary? Does your stomach drop? Does it feel like a roller coaster?

For many first-time passengers, the feeling of tandem paragliding is completely different from what they imagined.

Once you're airborne, you sit comfortably in the harness and glide through the air. Depending on the conditions and your personal preferences, your flight can be smooth and relaxing – or you can ask your pilot for a little more action.

Mario explains what taking off, flying and gliding through the Swiss Alps really feels like.

Where does paragliding in Interlaken start and where do you land? 📍

Our classic tandem paragliding experience starts with transportation from Interlaken up to the takeoff area in Beatenberg, high above Lake Thun.

After preparing the equipment and receiving your instructions, you take off together with your tandem pilot and begin your flight toward Interlaken.

And one of the best parts?

You don't have to find your way back from some remote mountain location after landing – your flight brings you right back down to Interlaken.

🇨🇭 What is a tandem paragliding flight in Interlaken really like?

Imagine standing on a mountainside above Interlaken.

Your pilot prepares the paraglider behind you. You receive your final instructions, start moving together – and suddenly your feet leave the ground.

The noise and excitement of the takeoff disappear and you're flying above the Swiss Alps. 🪂

Below you are green valleys, forests and the town of Interlaken. On either side are the blue waters of Lake Thun and Lake Brienz, while the snow-capped peaks of Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau rise in the distance.

That's what makes tandem paragliding in Interlaken one of the most memorable outdoor experiences during a trip to Switzerland.

☀️ Summer or ❄️ winter – when is the best time to paraglide in Interlaken?

Paragliding in Interlaken is possible in different seasons, and every time of year offers its own atmosphere.

Summer brings green landscapes, blue lakes and classic Alpine scenery, while winter can transform the mountains into a spectacular snow-covered landscape.

Ultimately, the most important factor for every flight is suitable weather and flying conditions.

Part 4 with Simon here: https://youtu.be/nptn_T8c3bQ?si=7nVo0w6OaID_RhP9

Who can go paragliding in Interlaken? Is there an age or weight limit? Can children fly? And what if you're afraid of heights? 🪂🇨🇭

In Episode 4 of our Most Asked Questions about Paragliding in Interlaken series, Simon Bl**er, tandem pilot and Operations Manager at Paragliding Interlaken, explains the physical and practical requirements for taking a tandem paragliding flight in Switzerland.

One of the great things about tandem paragliding is that you don't need previous flying experience or special training. However, there are some important requirements that need to be considered before your flight.

🪂 Questions answered in this episode:

What are the weight limits for paragliding in Interlaken?
Weight is an important factor when planning a tandem paragliding flight. Simon explains the relevant weight requirements and why factors such as weather and flying conditions can also influence whether a flight is possible.

Is there an age limit for tandem paragliding?
Many guests wonder whether they might be too young – or too old – to paraglide. We explain what really matters when determining whether someone can participate in a tandem flight.

Can children go paragliding in Interlaken? 👧🧒
Yes, tandem paragliding can also be an incredible experience for younger adventurers when the necessary requirements are met. Simon explains what parents should know before booking a paragliding flight for their child.

Do I need to be fit to go paragliding? 🏃
You don't need to be an athlete to enjoy tandem paragliding. However, takeoff normally requires the passenger and pilot to move together and run for a short distance. We explain what level of mobility is generally required and why guests with physical limitations should contact us before booking.

Can I go paragliding if I'm afraid of heights? 😬
This might surprise you! Being afraid of heights while standing on a balcony, cliff or observation platform doesn't necessarily mean you'll have the same feeling while paragliding.

Simon explains why flying under a paraglider can feel very different from standing at the edge of a high place – and why many nervous first-time passengers are surprised by how comfortable they feel once they're in the air.

Is paragliding suitable for families and groups? 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
Travelling through Switzerland together? Tandem paragliding can be a fantastic activity for couples, families, friends and larger groups. We explain how group flights are organized and what you should know when several people want to fly.

🇨🇭 Do you need experience to paraglide in Interlaken?

No previous paragliding experience is required for a tandem flight.

You'll fly together with an experienced tandem pilot who controls the paraglider. Before takeoff, your pilot explains what you need to do during launch, flight and landing.

Once airborne, you can simply sit back and enjoy spectacular views across Interlaken, Lake Thun, Lake Brienz and the Swiss Alps, including the famous Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau.

❤️ Am I suitable for tandem paragliding?

If you've been watching paragliders above Interlaken and thinking, “Could I actually do that?”, this episode is for you.

Age, weight, mobility, weather conditions and individual circumstances can all play a role. If you're unsure whether you or someone in your family meets the requirements, we recommend checking with our team before booking.

Part 3 with Yannick here: https://youtu.be/xCaKYpOXYxY?si=OHAXqRPWgJ7KNeO4

Is paragliding safe? How dangerous is tandem paragliding? And is paragliding safer than skydiving? 🪂🇨🇭

In Episode 3 of our Most Asked Questions about Paragliding in Interlaken series, Yannick Lattion, tandem pilot and Operations Manager at Paragliding Interlaken, talks about one of the most important topics for anyone considering their first flight: SAFETY.

If you're thinking about tandem paragliding in Switzerland but are concerned about accidents, risks, weather conditions or safety procedures, this video answers some of the most frequently asked questions.

🛡️ Questions answered in this episode:

Do accidents happen while paragliding?
Like any outdoor and aviation activity, paragliding involves risks and accidents can happen. Yannick explains how professional tandem operations work to identify, manage and minimize these risks.

How dangerous is paragliding?
Many first-time passengers wonder whether paragliding is dangerous. We explain what influences the safety of a tandem flight and why weather assessment, professional equipment, pilot experience and good decision-making are so important.

How big is the risk when tandem paragliding?
There is no outdoor adventure activity that can honestly be described as completely risk-free. In this episode, we discuss how risks are managed before takeoff and throughout your tandem paragliding experience.

Is safety guaranteed when paragliding?
No responsible operator can guarantee absolute safety. Instead, professional tandem paragliding relies on multiple safety measures, trained pilots, suitable equipment, weather monitoring and the willingness to delay or cancel a flight when conditions are not appropriate.

Is paragliding or skydiving safer?
Paragliding and skydiving are very different forms of flying, with different equipment, procedures and risk profiles. Yannick discusses the differences and what passengers should understand when comparing the two activities.

How is safety ensured during a tandem paragliding flight?
Safety begins long before takeoff. Weather and wind conditions, equipment, the launch area and the individual passenger all have to be considered before the pilot decides to fly.

🪂 How does tandem paragliding safety work?

When you fly tandem, you are attached to the paraglider together with an experienced tandem pilot. Before takeoff, you'll receive instructions explaining what you need to do during launch, flight and landing.

The pilot is responsible for assessing the conditions and making the final decision about whether a flight can safely take place.

And sometimes the safest decision is simply not to fly.

Weather in the Swiss Alps can change, and conditions suitable for paragliding are an essential part of every flight decision. A delay, change of takeoff location or cancellation may be disappointing, but putting safety before the flight is an important part of professional paragliding operations.

🇨🇭 Paragliding Safety in Interlaken, Switzerland

Interlaken is one of the world's best-known destinations for tandem paragliding. Flying here offers spectacular views across Lake Thun, Lake Brienz, Interlaken and the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau.

For many guests, however, the biggest question before enjoying those views is simply:

“Can I feel safe while paragliding?”

Watch the full episode as Yannick explains the risks, procedures and safety considerations behind a professional tandem paragliding flight in the Swiss Alps.
