PARAGLIDING SCHOOL ZURICH

Weststrasse 41

The paragliding school in the heart of Zurich. We get you from the city up in the air.

A story of success

Zurich 2007, where everything began! Dominic Rohner and Ueli Neuenschwander found paraworld.ch. Both of them are enthusiastic pilots, flight instructors, travel guides and to this day heart, brain and muscle of paraworld.ch. The idea of getting the students from the city to the mountains by their own minivan proved successful. The paragliding school soon developed into one of Switzerland´s most successful training centres. Since its beginnings, paraworld.ch has successfully trained more than 500 pilots.

Meanwhile, in the year of 2016, in addition to training and advanced training, paraworld.ch offers 18 paragliding journeys to both close and far foreign countries. Our delight in expedition also put forth in Switzerland: since 2015, we operate from a second location in Lucerne. All of us are passionate fliers and up in the air whenever possible. We are delighted to take you along. You can reach us per phone, e-mail or best personally in our shops in Lucern and Zurich.

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 here. 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.
