Paragliding - up in the air
Glide silently through the air. Enjoy a bird's eye view of Engelberg and the mountain panorama. Fürenalp is ideal for paragliding beginners and also for experienced paragliders.
The gondola for 8 people will bring you 800 m over the landing place. We recommend you to stop at the restaurant Fürenalp with the panorama terrace, before you walk 10 - 15 minutes to the starting place. If you are a little bit exhausted after the ascent, strech yourself on the alpine meadow and feel the sun shining warmly on your face. If you are ready for the flight - glide silently through the air. The landing place is located 200 meteres behind the valley station Fürenalp. After 5 minutes walk back to the station, you can take the cable car up again and off you go to your next paragliding flight.
