KLOSTERS: Paragliding For 2 – Couples (Video &Photos Incl.)

The best part of this Klosters outing is simple: you and your partner leave the mountain at the same time, each with a pilot, and float above the Swiss Alps together. You get a clear view of Davos, the Prättigau valley, and the Swiss village below, rather than watching your partner disappear into the sky first. Flying side by side makes this feel like a shared occasion, not two separate rides.

I like the careful preparation, including a safety briefing and practice starts before takeoff. I also like that photos and video are included, so you can concentrate on the flight instead of trying to hold a phone in the air. The main drawback is cost: at $397.56 per person, plus about $35 each for the cable car, this is a major splurge.

Key points to know before booking

• Two passengers fly together: You and your partner each fly with a separate pilot.
• The launch is near the mountain top: A cable-car ride gets you close to the takeoff area, with little walking afterward.
• Practice comes first: You rehearse the launch on the slope before leaving the ground.
• Photos and video are included: You receive a record of the flight without managing your own camera.
• The flight is weather dependent: Poor conditions can lead to a new date or a full refund.
• Weight and fitness rules apply: Passengers must weigh between 20 and 125 kilograms and have moderate physical fitness.

Flying together above Klosters and Davos

This is a tandem paragliding trip designed for two people who want the same adventure at the same time. Air-Davos Paragliding supplies the equipment and assigns a pilot to each passenger. You do not need previous paragliding experience, and the pilot remains with you throughout the flight.

The setting is Klosters, in the Prättigau region of Switzerland. From the air, you can look toward Davos and the surrounding alpine valleys, with the small Swiss village of Klosters below. The views are the main reason to book, but the shared format is just as important for couples marking a birthday, anniversary, or another special day.

You will not be packed into a large group for the flight. This is a private activity for your own party, although two pilots are needed so both passengers can fly together. That setup gives you a more personal outing and keeps the focus on the pair of you.

From Klosters Platz to the launch site

The listed meeting point is Gotschnastrasse 19, 7250 Klosters Platz, Switzerland. The activity returns to this same meeting point at the end. You will need to arrange your own way to the start, and transportation to or from other attractions is not included.

The practical notes from the flight operation place the meeting area by the Jakobshornbahn, with a suggested meeting time of 1:50 p.m. Since the provided meeting information also lists Gotschnastrasse 19, check the exact instructions you receive after booking. This is especially important if you are coordinating trains, a hotel transfer, or a cable-car schedule.

You also need to buy the cable-car ticket separately. The listed cost is about $35 per person. Allow for that extra expense when comparing the total price with other activities in Davos and Klosters. The cable car is not just a transport detail. It takes you to the high launch area and saves you a long uphill walk.

One useful detail is that the launch point is directly below the summit area, so you may not have far to walk once you reach the top. Still, wear shoes suitable for a mountain slope and arrive with enough time to get organized. The available information does not promise hotel pickup, so do not assume it is included.

Safety practice before takeoff

Paragliding looks effortless from the valley, but the first few seconds require clear teamwork. Your pilot explains how the launch and landing work, then guides you through the correct movements. You should expect to listen carefully and follow instructions rather than simply sit back from the start.

The preparation includes practicing the launch on the slope. The available flight details indicate that the start was rehearsed twice before the actual takeoff. That is useful for a first-time passenger because it lets you feel the forward movement and understand when to run and when to follow the pilot’s direction.

Helmets and gloves are available. The pilot stays with you for the entire flight, and each person has a pilot rather than sharing one. This arrangement is particularly helpful for couples because both of you receive direct instruction and can launch as a pair.

You need moderate physical fitness. The launch and landing procedures require active participation, so this is not a ride for someone who cannot move confidently on a slope. Children aged eight and under are not recommended. Passenger weight must be between 20 and 125 kilograms.

What the roughly two-hour outing includes

The full activity takes about two hours, though the time in the air is only part of that period. The outing also includes meeting the pilots, traveling up by cable car, receiving the briefing, practicing the launch, preparing the equipment, flying, and returning to the meeting point.

The exact flight time is not provided, so do not book this expecting two hours suspended above the valley. Weather, wind, and operating conditions affect the schedule. The supplied duration is best understood as the length of the complete activity.

Once the equipment is ready, you and your partner take off with the pilots. From there, you can enjoy wide views of Davos and the Prättigau area. The flight may include the chance to steer under the pilot’s direction, which adds a hands-on element for anyone who wants more than a passive ride.

The pilot may also offer thrilling maneuvers. These are not required, and you should communicate how adventurous you feel. The basic flight already provides the major reward: quiet time in the air with a broad view beneath you. The maneuvers are an optional burst of excitement, not the whole point of the outing.

The mountain view: Davos, Prättigau, and Klosters below

From the launch area, the view includes Davos and the Prättigau valley. You also see the Swiss village of Klosters from above, a perspective that is hard to get from a normal sightseeing walk. The changing angle is part of the appeal: the valley, village, cable-car route, and mountain slopes form one broad scene rather than a single lookout point.

This is a good choice if you value scenery as much as adrenaline. The flight gives you time to look around, but you should not expect a quiet observation platform. You are attached to a paraglider, moving with the air, and preparing for landing. The result is more intimate and active than a cable-car ride alone.

The views can also make the extra cable-car ticket feel worthwhile. You are using the mountain transport to reach the start, then seeing the same region from a completely different height. If you are already planning a mountain day in Davos or Klosters, the flight can become the central event rather than an add-on.

Weather remains the big variable. Paragliding needs suitable conditions, so the views and flight path cannot be guaranteed in advance. If poor weather forces cancellation, you are offered another date or a full refund.

Photos, video, and the value of the price

At $397.56 per person, this is expensive by normal sightseeing standards. For two people, the listed activity price comes to about $795.12 before the two cable-car tickets, which add roughly $70 for the pair. You should treat it as a special-occasion purchase, not a casual hour of entertainment.

The value improves if you would otherwise pay for a separate photo session or video package. Photos and video are included, and that matters during a flight where handling a phone can distract you from the view or create a safety problem. You can focus on listening to your pilot and enjoying the air.

The cost also covers the tandem equipment, the pilot, the preparation, and the private format for your group. It does not cover transportation to the meeting point or the cable car. Write down the complete total before you book so the extra mountain ticket does not surprise you.

I would compare this outing with the value of the occasion. For a couple celebrating something important, the shared launch, two pilots, and recorded flight may justify the price. If you simply want a cheap way to see Davos from above, the cable car and a mountain viewpoint will cost much less.

What makes this a good couples activity

Many adventure activities split couples apart. One person goes first, then waits on the ground while the other takes a turn. Here, you both fly at once, each with a pilot, so the central memory belongs to both of you.

You can see each other in the air, share the same route, and talk about the flight as soon as you return. That makes the activity especially fitting for a proposal celebration, anniversary, birthday, or a first big Alpine trip together.

The photos and video add another advantage. You do not have to rely on a quick snapshot before takeoff, and you can remember the moment without asking one of you to manage a camera. The available feedback places strong emphasis on the amount of visual material provided, so this is not a minor extra.

Still, think about comfort levels. If one person wants a calm flight and the other wants strong maneuvers, discuss that with the pilots before leaving the ground. The opportunity for steering and exciting turns is appealing, but neither person should feel pressured to choose the most intense option.

Who should book this flight

I would recommend it to adults and older children who meet the weight limits, have moderate fitness, and want a real aerial adventure rather than a standard sightseeing ride. First-timers are welcome because the pilot explains the process and guides you throughout.

It suits couples who want a shared event with a strong visual setting. It also works for experienced paragliders who want a tandem flight in the Klosters and Davos region, though the available details focus on the tandem format rather than advanced independent flying.

I would hesitate if you dislike heights, have trouble following physical instructions, or want a fixed schedule that cannot change. The activity depends on weather, and the start involves active participation. It is also not recommended for children aged eight and under.

Practical details that affect your day

The activity uses a mobile ticket, and confirmation is provided when you book. Keep the confirmation available on your phone, particularly if you are moving between the village, cable-car station, and meeting point.

Book with the weather policy in mind. You can cancel for a full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours before the local start time. Cancellations made less than 24 hours ahead are not refunded, and changes inside that period are not accepted.

Poor weather is handled differently from a personal change of plans. If conditions cancel the activity, you receive the option of another date or a full refund. Since the flight depends on safe weather, keep some flexibility in your schedule if possible.

Bring only what you need and follow the pilot’s instructions about personal items. The supplied details do not specify storage arrangements, so ask before arriving if you have a large bag or special equipment.

Should you book Air-Davos Paragliding for two?

Book it if you want the full shared moment: two pilots, a launch near the mountain top, views over Davos and Prättigau, included photos and video, and the chance to add some steering or aerial action. The careful launch practice and direct pilot support make it accessible to first-time flyers.

Skip it if the price, extra cable-car cost, or weather uncertainty will make the day stressful. A cable-car ride alone gives you mountain views for far less money. But if you are celebrating as a couple and want one memorable event that you experience together, this Klosters flight offers something a normal viewpoint cannot.
