Best Paragliding company in Zermatt!!
For the most amazing experience, you have to come here and see Michael for a paragliding experience you won’t forget with breathtaking views of the Matterhorn and the village far below. My wife and I booked the package with the photos and videos. What a truly professional team Michael from Zermatt Paragliding has. My pilot was Plamen and what a funny and hilarious guy. He was very professional and safety was a must. I got the opportunity to steer which was also unbelievable. We had the best weather conditions. We could have stayed up for ages. What an addictive experience. Thanks to you all. 5 Stars!!

Fantastic experience! Mike was an excellent and very experienced pilot and made the flight very enjoyable. Less expensive to book directly with Zermatt Paragliding than to use Trip Advisor or Viator.

Best experience of the vacation
Zermatt Paragliding gave my wife and I the best once in a lifetime experience. We booked directly with Michael after watching them jump on our first day in Zermatt and he was quick to respond. Both Michael and Thierry met us at the designated time the next morning and accompanied us on the lifts to the launch zone. Along the way they briefed us to prepare us for the jump. Once at the summit we suited up in their warm jump suites and were ready to go. The early morning weather was perfect and we jumped. We cruised over the glaciers and surrounding mountain sides. Our guides pointed out the various mountain peaks and other points of interest on our way down. The views were incredible and we couldn't have been happier with our experience.

Most wonderful time!
We went paragliding with Zermatt Paragliding December 2025. Michael and Thierry were wonderful guides; taking care of us and making us all comfortable with the process from start to finish. They made sure we had a good morning with perfect weather for our flight; and it was truly amazing experience. They were patient and took time to take plenty of pictures (even if those of us not flying:) You could tell they loved being on the mountain and sharing their knowledge as well as the natural beauty of the area. Thank you for such a wonderful flight!!!
