Continuing the successful story
The steadily increasing demand as well as our thirst for adventure led us to the question whether the formula for success in Zurich might be applicable for Lucerne. No sooner thought than done, we opened our paragliding school paraworld.ch in Lucerne in 2015. The spacious shop at Eichmattstrasse 11 serves as a starting point for training actions from Lucerne, salesroom and – situated close to the landing site Allmend – is always good for a landing beer. Lucerne and Zurich, two locations, one philosophy, one team. All flight instructors are training in Zurich as well as in Lucerne. All students can fly with us from Lucerne as well as from Zurich.
In addition to training and advanced training, we offer an abundance of material: gliders, harnesses and accessories. Furthermore, we offer tandem flights, vouchers and numerous journeys. In Lucerne like in Zurich, we are happy to advise you personally. The shop is open Thursdays and Fridays from 5.30 pm to 8 pm.
Flying and training sites
Most of our flying sites are situated close to Lake Lucerne in Central Switzerland. In addition to high altitude, we are also blessed with thermals hier. All flying sites are accessible by public transport. We always provide a shuttle bus transfer from our shops in Lucerne and Zurich and back. Whether Zurich or Lucerne: you can decide the previous evening which group you want to fly with and thus have a choice between two flying sites every day. The first part of the training (about 4 days) takes place on a training hill. Depending on wind and season, we have various training hills around Zug, Lucerne and Zurich at our disposal.
Season? All year long!
Paragliding is possible all year long and this is exactly what we do! Each season has its attraction and advantages and is suitable for training. While spring and summer convince by luscious thermals, winter provides calm air and autumn is the perfect time for hike & fly; a combination of hiking and flying.
- We train 6 days a week. Daily except Tuesdays.

- Ground training and trial days take place every Thursday to Sunday.
