“Perfect introduction to paragliding, now I’m soaring on my own” – Sabine

Learning paragliding with Markus and the whole team at Fly High has been a truly transformative and life changing experience for me. I will never look at the sky in the same way. Flying at 2600 meters height, rising up above the snow capped peaks of the Alps, soaring with eagles and vultures along the ridges… it’s simply an “out of this world” feeling, an experience in a realm of it’s own. I highly recommend learning and flying with the eagle crew at Fly High!  – Erik

“Boosted my confidence in paragliding, highly recommended.” – Rüdiger
