Travel & adventures in the air
A bird's eye view of the Engadin mountains - helicopter, paraglider, delta, sailplane.
The imposing mountain scenery of the Upper Engadin with its snow-covered peaks, glaciers, rugged cliffs, extensive forests and the enchanting lake landscape exerts a great fascination - especially when we experience it up close from a bird's eye view. This is possible on a helicopter tour or on a tandem flight with a paraglider, delta or glider. Take off from the highest airfield in Europe or from one of the surrounding mountain peaks.
Helicopter
From the heliport at Engadin Airport near Samedan, sightseeing flights around the Bernina massif, VIP and taxi flights can be booked.
Round Flights
On the sightseeing flights in the Engadin sky you will experience the fascinating natural landscape from a bird's eye view. The helicopter brings you very close to the mighty ice and snow mountains of the Bernina region. There is space for 4-5 passengers in a helicopter. Various flight routes are available. Price from CHF 150 per person.
Heliski
From the heliport in St. Moritz Bad or from Samedan airfield directly to Piz Corvatsch or to Fuorcla Grischa on Piz Nair. The helicopter flies winter sports enthusiasts directly to the ski area or to heliski in another Swiss ski region.

Floating silently through the air ... You don't need any previous experience for a tandem flight, just a bit of courage. You will be rewarded with an overwhelming experience.
While the experienced pilot calmly unfolds the glider, nervousness slowly begins to rise.

Depending on the weather and season, paragliding passenger flights depart from Muottas Muragl, Alp Languard, Corviglia, Diavolezza or Corvatsch.

Glider Passenger Flights
The flight as a passenger in a glider is literally breathtaking - because of the unique landscape and because of the prevailing centrifugal forces.
The long tradition of glider operations at Engadin Airport dates back to 1934. As gliders need a lot of thermals, they fly mainly on nice days in the summer months from around
1 pm. Number of participants per flight: one person. The exact take-off and flight time depends on the availability of pilots, the updraught and the current weather conditions. Registration must be made at least one day in advance. Price for half an hour from CHF 160.
