Fluggebiete Davos Klosters

Schon fast von Beginn der Gleitschirmfliegerei sind die bunten Tücher an schönen Tagen fester Bestandteil am Himmel über Davos Klosters.

Davos Klosters ist ein hervorragendes Ganzjahres-Fluggebiet im Osten der Schweiz. Dank guter Infrastruktur, einfacher Start- und Landemöglichkeiten, keinen Luftraumeinschränkungen durch Flughäfen oder Heli-Ports (Ausnahme: Flugverbot während des World Economic Forums) erfreut sich Davos Klosters grosser Beliebtheit unter Gleitschirmpiloten.

Ob Acro- oder Streckenflug, Thermik- oder Soaring, Hike & Fly oder gemütlich mit der Bahn zum Startplatz. Auf den Bergen rund um Davos bleibt fliegerisch (fast) kein Wunsch offen.

Auch die Red Bull X-Alps legten hier 2019 einen Stopp ein und sorgten für unvergessliche Gleitschirm-Momente.

Flight area Jakobshorn

In the wind-protected flying arena on the Jakobshorn in Davos, flying is possible all year round.

The two sections of the Jakobshorn cable car provide easy access to the summit and from there to the launch sites.

Davos Gleitschirm Paragliding Startplatz Jatzhuette

Startplatz Jatzhütte

Especially in the winter, people often start from the Jatzhütte. From the Jakobshorn summit, the Jatzhütte can be reached in about 10 minutes. The (SW-W) launch site directly in front of the hut is quite steep, so that one can get away well even with zero wind in winter. The take-off place (S) behind the hut is very flat. In case of zero wind a fast sprint is necessary here. If you can’t get out at the Jatzhütte you can walk towards Chalet Güggel and take the Güggelbahn back to the summit.

Other flight options in Davos

Schatzalp

Die Schatzalp ist Ausgangspunkt für schöne Hike&Flys. Dank der Südost-Ausrichtung der Bergflanke entsteht Thermik schon recht früh am Morgen. Ab Mittag muss auf Grund des einsetzenden Talwinds mit Abwind gerechnet werden.

Parsenn

Since the closure of the landing site on Lake Davos during the vegetation season, Davos Parsenn can unfortunately no longer be used as a training flying site in summer.
