Join me for an adrenaline-filled adventure to the beautiful valley of Zermatt. Paraglide through the Swiss Alps from Riffelberg, located at 2,582 meters.
Riffelberg is filled with breathtaking views and local history. It is the place where Zermatt opened its first mountain hotel and it also has Zermatt’s finest vantage point.
The take-off point of this adventure is located a few walking minutes away from the Riffelberg station in the Gornergrat Train. You can either take the train to that station and walk or take advantage of the ride and continue by train the whole line. That way, you’ll enjoy unforgettable views of the glaciers and the highest peaks of the Alps. You can then hike back for an hour to our meeting point or take back the train to Riffelberg station.
Our flight time is of approximately 20 minutes over Riffelalp and across the valley of Zermatt, our landing spot. We’ll be rewarded with stunning views of the Matterhorn and many other 4,000-meter peaks.
This trip is definitely not recommended for those afraid of heights!
What are you waiting for? Book your trip now and get ready to enjoy the Zermatt valley as never before.
If you can’t get enough of paragliding, I also offer other trips from Rothorn and from Blauherd.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
