Description
The highest hanggliding tandemflight in Switzerland. From up to 2000m you fly for 20-60 minutes like an eagle.
Hang gliding is the best way to fly free like a bird. It is faster and more intense than paragliding. Whether fast and wild or just in peace, your pilot adapts to your wishes.
The ride on the nostalgic funicular and the world first CabriO to Mt Stanserhorn is unique. The wonderful view from the summit over whole central Switzerland will inspire you. We gently take off into the third dimension. The silent flight over mountains and lakes will be an unforgettable experience.

Indescribably beautiful!
A wonderful and impressive experience. To be able to take on the perspective of a bird while flying, to feel the wind and experience thermals - wonderful! Fredy and Roman made it easy for us to trust them and to feel safe at all times. Booking and processing were simple and uncomplicated.
We can recommend hang gliding with Birdlike without hesitation.

Unlike anything else!
This was an amazing activity. Fredy was professionally and answered and questions about the activity that we had. Fredy has 40 years of Hang gliding experience starting when he was 17. Don’t hesitate to book this adventure. There are not many places in the world that you can book hang gliding. The views the while flying are absolutely unlike anything that you can imagine. We had five participants in Fredy communicated with us to make sure everyone in our group would be able to fly. Also, there is a picture package offered. We purchased these and they are very high-quality images and videos.

Exhilarating and Unforgettable!
If you're thinking about a hang gliding trip I highly recommend BirdLike Hang Gliding! The scenery at Stanserhorn is stunning and Fredy was terrific. He's responsive to pre-trip questions, was clear about where/when to go and just an all around friendly guy and expert pilot. He gave a nice mix of leisurely gliding and asked before he did some "rock and roll" flying. Exhilarating! I had such a blast! I recommend booking directly with him and buying the photos and videos to relive the unforgettable experience over and over!
