The Titlis is an extraordinary paragliding mountain with many (cross-country) possibilities! The mountain is mainly visited by alpine paraglider pilots.What awaits you:

  • a 15-20 minute walk from Rotairstation towards the Titlis summit
  • High flights to Engelberg with over 2000 m difference in altitude
  • small distances in the Engelberger valley of 20 km (caution ropes)
  • fantastic alpine destinations like Grassenbiwak, Sustenhorn etc. in the south for experts.
  • only the north & northwest wind is suitable

Due to the exposure of the Titlis, there is usually more wind than desired. The launch site is on a glacier. Attention must be paid to the crevasses.
