Description
The thermal flight from Seceda promises an extraordinary experience. You start either directly from the mountain station or, under suitable conditions, from an even higher position. The ascent is conveniently managed using the lift systems, with tickets available at the valley station if you don’t have a day pass. During the flight, you’ll feel the power of the thermals carrying you through the air while enjoying unforgettable views of the stunning mountain scenery. For a special finale, we can incorporate some acrobatic maneuvers at the end of the flight – just let us know, and we’ll tailor the experience to your preferences. After landing at the cozy Pauli Hut, we’ll walk back to the meeting point together.
