Description

The Flumserberg is a small but well-known ski and hiking area in Switzerland, located in the canton of St. Gallen, ranging from 1,220 meters to 2,220 meters above sea level. For more information, visit: [Flumserberg Paragliding](http://www.flumserberg.ch/sommer/de/offer/weitere_angebote/Gleitschirmfliegen.htm). The Flumserberge in Heidiland are quickly and easily accessible, offering a modern transport network that swiftly takes guests to the launch sites at Maschgenkamm at 2020 meters. From there, you can enjoy a fantastic summer flight over 1600 meters with breathtaking views, followed by a refreshing swim near the landing site. In winter, a ski lift takes you up to the 2222-meter-high Leist. Launches are possible in almost all directions, always providing a spot for soaring or gaining altitude. The ideal wind direction is northwest. Southern winds can make it challenging, and local pilots often switch to Schrina in such conditions. There are three main flight routes: 1. Flight to Unterterzen: Note that the old landing site is under construction and closed. Experienced pilots can find some fields near the valley station for landing, provided they are mowed. 2. Flight to Walenstadt: To climb up to the Churfirtsten after crossing the valley, you need to gain some altitude on the Flumserberg side. 3. Flight to Flums: Requires some thermals and can be extended via Prodkamm for the next flight. 4. Route along the relief: A visit to Sonnenhalde near Flums is always an option. It gets tricky with Föhn winds or when ships on Lake Walen suddenly reef their sails, which can happen quickly. In such cases, it's advisable to land higher up.
