Tandem paragliding

Why a tandem paragliding flight?

From the age of ten, children with the capacity to discern can, in the context of their pocket money or in the case of professional activity (such as an apprentice’s salary), enter into a valid contract without requiring parental authorization (Art. 323 para. 1 of the Civil Code). Having the capacity to discern means being able to reasonably weigh the pros and cons of a decision. From the age of 14, it can be assumed that a contract entered into is valid on paper.

Why paragliding in Villeneuve?

The Villeneuve region (paragliding flight in summer) is a region with an exceptional panorama. With a naturally sunny climate and benefiting from a micro-climate specific to the Montreux region. In flight, you also have an exceptional view of Lavaux, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as well as of Chillon Castle.

A MOB day and a tandem paragliding flight?

Take a MOB & paragliding day (Montreux-Bernese Oberland – Pays d’Enhaut train) with a paragliding stop. 10 minutes by bus from Montreux separate you from the meeting point at the station square in Villeneuve. Our pilots pick you up directly from the train station / bus stop to take you to the flight site. And you will discover the region from a tandem paraglider.
