Perfect flight conditions at Unterberghorn

Launch Sites at Hochkössen

Die Region Hochkössen ist ein besonders beliebtes Ziel bei Paragleitern.

North winds rise up the northern slope of the Unterberghorn Mountain and ensure the so-called rise of the air masses, ideal conditions for paragliders. Additional sunlight produces thermal up-winds that carry you high above Unterberg.

Useful information: There are two landing areas at Hochkössen resort. The first one is located directly at the cable car, the second one at Kössen Flight School. There are no additional starting and landing fees.
