Two hours above the Swiss Alps is a gift. I like this paragliding experience in Klosters because it’s built for couples who want big views over Davos without complicated prep. You’ll fly tandem with two pilots, you get a full safety briefing, and you can even try steering and feel the thrill of in-air maneuvers.

My favorite part is the way they teach you in plain steps: you’ll rehearse launch technique on the slope, then fly with your pilot guiding every move. The other standout for couples is the shared moment—going up at the same time, with video and photos included, so the day doesn’t vanish into memory fog. The one drawback to consider: it depends on good weather, and a cable car ride to the start area costs extra.

Key things that make this paragliding for two special

• Two pilots, tandem setup for couples: you both fly with a pilot instead of taking turns.
• Briefing plus hands-on practice: you’ll rehearse start procedures before launch.
• You get more than a simple glide: there’s a chance to steer and enjoy thrilling maneuvers.
• Davos from above: incredible aerial views that feel different from any viewpoint.
• Video and photos included: you’ll have proof and keepsakes without planning a camera mission.
• Moderate fitness needed: you’ll want to be comfortable with some movement in alpine terrain.

Klosters Paragliding for Two: what the experience is really like

This is a tandem paragliding ride designed around one simple goal: you and your partner should share the sky together. In Klosters (near Davos), the views are the headline, but what matters just as much is how calm and guided the experience feels on the ground. You’re not thrown into the air and told good luck. You get explained procedures, equipment ready for you, and a pilot with you from start to finish.

The vibe is also couple-friendly. You’re not waiting around while your partner flies. Since the setup is for two passengers with pilots on hand, you go up as a pair and can react to the same moment—launch, gliding, the first wide view of Davos, and the landing.

You should expect the experience to be physical in a light way. You’re not hiking for hours, but you’ll be moving around a launch area and wearing gear. The operator asks for moderate physical fitness, and there’s also a weight range (20–125 kg). If either of you is near the edges of those limits, it’s worth checking carefully before you book.

From the meeting point to the start area: planning your time in Klosters

Your meeting point is Gotschnastrasse 19, 7250 Klosters Platz, Switzerland, and the activity ends back at that same point. That back-to-start setup is nice because it removes a lot of day-planning stress. You’re not trying to guess how to get back from a remote landing spot.

One cost detail can catch people off guard: the cable car ticket is not included and is listed as 35 USD per person. If you don’t already have a way up to the start area, you should treat that as part of your real budget. Also note transportation to and from attractions isn’t included, so plan to handle getting to Klosters Platz on your own (or with your hotel’s options).

A smart practical move is to build a little slack into your schedule. Even if everything runs smoothly, mountain weather and timing can shift. In the reviews, people appreciated how organized the whole pickup felt and how close the start area is to the cable car zone, which made it easier to handle that extra ticket without turning the day into logistics.

Before you fly: briefing, gear, and launch practice that makes you feel safe

What you’re getting here isn’t just a ride. It’s a guided sequence that helps you understand what’s happening. You’ll receive a detailed briefing about launch and landing procedures, and a pilot accompanies you throughout.

Gear is also handled. You’ll use paragliding equipment provided by the operator, and you’ll be set up with the necessary safety gear on site. That’s important because it means you don’t have to bring your own technical clothing just to participate.

Then comes the part I really like for beginners: you don’t only hear instructions—you practice. One of the most praised details is that you’ll rehearse start procedures on the hang more than once before actual flight. That kind of dry run does two things:

• It teaches you what to do with your body during launch.
• It reduces that nervous guesswork when you’re suddenly facing forward and the lift happens.

If you’ve ever felt tense about doing something physical while wearing harness gear, this “practice first” approach is the difference between thinking about it too hard and just trusting the process.

Stop one at the alpine launch spot: where the flight begins

Your ride kicks off from a perfect launch site in the alpine area. This matters because paragliding is very weather- and terrain-dependent, and a well-chosen launch spot helps everything run more smoothly.

On the ground, expect a short, structured lead-in rather than chaos. Your pilot stays with you and guides you through the steps, and you’ll be ready for launch after the briefing and practice. That’s one of the reasons this works well for a wide range of skill levels. You don’t need previous paragliding experience to enjoy it, because the process is taught clearly.

In the air, the flight starts turning into something else entirely: quiet, then suddenly huge. You’ll get the first real aerial look at Davos and the surrounding mountain valleys, and once you’re settled, you’ll have that sense of floating that you can’t get from a chairlift or a scenic train.

Flying over Davos: views, steering, and the fun parts

This is where the experience earns its reputation. You’ll see incredible aerial views over Davos. It’s the kind of scenery that makes you stop thinking in a straight line. From above, towns, roads, and green slopes stop looking like a map and start looking like a living model.

Here’s another reason couples love this setup: you both get the same sky time. You can watch your partner’s reaction as the glider settles into flight, then you’ll share the same wide panorama as the pilot guides your positioning.

And it’s not only sightseeing. A major highlight is the chance to steer the glider. Even if you’re not an expert, being able to influence the direction or feel how control works gives you that I did something real feeling. It turns a ride into an experience you participate in.

Then there are thrilling maneuvers. You don’t have to be fearless to enjoy them, because the pilot controls the flight and keeps it safe. Think of it as a controlled rollercoaster moment—sharp, fun, and guided.

Also, since the title includes video and photos, your pilot time is paired with visual keepsakes. You’re not juggling your phone and worrying about capturing the shot at the exact second the view opens up.

Stop two: the Prättigau village view and the second chapter of the flight

Your flight continues toward a Swiss village in the Prättigau region. This second stop is a nice change of pace because it gives you more than one type of scenery. You’ll see a shift from the big “Davos look” to a quieter village context—mountain life, small-scale detail, and the valley’s layout.

This matters for couples because the sky can start to feel like one long panorama if the flight only focuses on distance. But adding a second distinct visual target makes the ride feel like a story with a beginning, middle, and a clear later-stage moment.

It’s also helpful if one of you tends to focus on details. Villages from the air highlight patterns—rooflines, road curves, and the way the valley wraps around the settlement. It gives your eyes something specific to track beyond just sky and peaks.

Even if you’re not a photography person, this kind of contrast tends to make the photos look better too—different backgrounds, different angles, more variety in the final images.

Video and photos included: what you should expect from the keepsakes

Many activities promise photos, then make you hunt for them later. Here, video and photos are positioned as part of the experience, and that’s backed up by the positive feedback people left—enough photos and videos, and clear organization around capturing the moment.

What I like about included photo/video is the mental load. When you’re in the air, your attention should be on enjoying the ride. If you have to coordinate camera timing, you end up thinking instead of feeling. With video and photos included, you can focus on the view, the steering attempt, and the thrill moments while your pilot (and team workflow) handle the documentation.

One more practical angle: paragliding is windy, and conditions change fast. Having the operator handle capture means you’re more likely to end up with usable shots instead of only shaky phone footage.

Price and value for couples: is 397.56 USD per person worth it?

The price is listed at 397.56 USD per person, and that’s not “cheap.” But paragliding isn’t a half-day filler—this is a guided, tandem, instructor-led experience in an alpine setting, and you’re paying for risk management, equipment, pilots, and the time it takes to brief and fly safely.

What boosts the value:

• Tandem paragliding ride with a pilot
• Use of paragliding equipment
• Video and photos included (per the experience title)
• A guided flow that includes briefing and launch/landing procedure coaching
• A couple-oriented setup so you both get sky time

What you need to budget separately:

• Cable car ticket: 35 USD per person
• Transportation to/from attractions

If you’re paying 397.56 USD per person and add the 35 USD cable car cost, your realistic per-person spend becomes about 432.56 USD when you need the lift to get up. For many couples, that’s still worth it because you’re buying a once-in-a-while experience, not just a viewpoint.

Also, this is private: only your group participates. That usually means less waiting and a more tailored, calmer experience than large shared groups.

Who should book this Klosters paragliding for two (and who should skip it)

This experience is a solid fit if you and your partner want something exciting but structured. It’s labeled as suitable for beginners or experienced paragliders alike, and the briefing plus practice makes that true in practice. You’re not relying on guts and guesswork.

You should book if:

• You’re a couple celebrating something and want a memorable shared moment
• You want aerial views over Davos without driving to multiple viewpoints
• You like the idea of steering the glider and getting thrill moments

You should think twice or check limits if:

• You or your partner can’t meet the passenger weight range of 20 to 125 kg
• Either of you has trouble with moderate physical fitness needs
• You’re traveling with kids older than 8 is not specified, but it’s explicitly not recommended for child aged 8 and under

If you’re worried about comfort with heights or movement at the start area, remember the process is taught and practiced first. That said, the better your comfort with standing, moving briefly, and following instructions, the smoother your experience will be.

Weather reality: the one thing that can change your plan

This activity requires good weather. That’s normal for mountain air sports, but it’s still a key planning point. If conditions aren’t right, you’ll be offered a different date or a full refund.

So it’s smart to keep your schedule flexible on your Davos day. If you’re in town for a tight window, consider having a backup plan for the same day or next day. The good news is that because paragliding is weather-dependent, operators tend to take timing seriously—so when you go, it’s usually because the conditions are actually flyable.

Quick practical checklist before you go

You’re not doing technical prep, but a few things can make the day feel easier:

• Plan for mountain conditions (wind can be a factor in the air)
• Bring what you need for comfort and warmth, since alpine weather can shift
• Double-check both cable car needs and how you’ll get to the meeting point
• Make sure everyone meets the weight requirement (20–125 kg)
• Wear shoes that work for the start area and follow pilot instructions on timing

The less you fuss with logistics, the more you can enjoy the single best part: turning your day into a shared flight memory.

Should you book this Klosters paragliding for two?

Book it if you and your partner want a well-run tandem experience with real sky time, a chance to steer, and photos/video to prove it happened. The private setup for two, plus the focus on briefing and launch practice, makes this feel like an adventure you don’t have to overthink.

Skip it (or at least reconsider) if weather is a problem in your travel window or if additional costs like the cable car ticket would be a dealbreaker. Also be honest about fitness and weight limits so you don’t end up disappointed.

If you’re looking for an experience that feels special fast—without needing experience or special gear planning—this is one of the strongest value picks in the Klosters and Davos area.
