Fly like a Bird

There are so many exciting activities in Interlaken but my favourite one has got to be hang-gliding with Bumblebee! The Bumblebee crew (a.k.a. the cool kids) is always spreading good vibes, from pick up to the landing zone you’ll have a great time with them. All the pilots simply love their job and it’s more than the regular “dealing-with-tourists-on-a-daily-base-to-make-money-for-wintervacation” you might experience in some places. The flight itself is so much faster and more dynamic than paragliding. Hanging under the glider you really get to feel like a bird, enjoying the views over the mountains, the lakes and the Interlaken area. I am scared of heights but the whole experience was so overwhelming I completely forgot to be afraid.

Bumblebee will pick you up in front of the apartments. Take off is in Beatenberg, landing at the Höhematte in the middle of Interlaken. You don’t need any previous experience, good physical condition, good shoes and a weight of max. 90 kgs (200 lb) is enough.
Hang-gliding is slightly more expensive than the popular paragliding. This has different reasons, one of them is that they just have to bring a lot more gear. The overall experience is definitely worth every cent and I promise that you will never forget your flight above Interlaken with the Bumblebee Crew
