You and your pilot will take the cable car up to Pilatus together. The pilot will choose the exact takeoff and landing spot based on the wind conditions. You only need to walk a few steps on alpine terrain. This doesn't require any special physical fitness.
Afterward, you’ll fly in tandem with your certified pilot over the area around Lake Lucerne and Lucerne. You’ll experience nature from a whole new perspective and soar with the birds on the updrafts, as long as the thermals allow. Make sure to plan a two-hour time window for the entire activity.
Practical Information:
- Large luggage can be stored at the valley station.
- A small, compact camera is allowed.
- You can bring a small bag with you.
