South Tyrol paragliding: Kronplatz or Plose
South Tyrol paragliding in tandem means you sit in a harness in front of a pilot, who handles the launch, the flight and the landing. You need no experience, only the willingness to run a few steps at the start. The three flights compared here use two mountains: Kronplatz near Bruneck in the Pustertal, and the Plose above Brixen. Both launch sites are reached by lift, so you ride up to the start and fly down.
The choice is mostly about where you stay and what you want below you. The Plose flight meets at St. Andrä near Brixen and crosses the Brixen basin before landing on a meadow nearby. Prices as of November 2026 run from €149 to €179 per person.

Tandem paragliding at Kronplatz
Two of the flights use Kronplatz, where the launch sites near the summit are reached by lift. The flight at €149 meets at the landing field by the Dolasilla pizzeria, Reiperting 27 in Reischach. All equipment is included and the cable car is paid on top. Your exact time is set after booking and depends on the weather, so a flexible day works best.
The flight at €159 meets at the base station of the Kronplatz lift, Seilbahnstraße 10 in Reischach. Insurance, a briefing, harness and helmet are included, and the cable car ticket to the launch site is paid on top. A photo and film package for the €159 flight costs €20 per person.
On the €159 flight the normal limit is 120 kg with a suitable harness. Heavier guests can fly after agreeing it in advance, so a start is not guaranteed.
Tandem paragliding from the Plose near Brixen
The Plose flight meets at the base station in St. Andrä near Brixen. You ride the cable car together with the pilot, walk a short way to the launch and fly over the Brixen basin. After the landing, a shuttle takes you from the landing site back to the meeting point. The flight itself lasts roughly 20 minutes, and the listing gives one hour for the whole outing. The cable car ticket is paid on top. The guideline for this flight is 15 to 120 kg, depending on the launch and landing conditions.
The price of €179 covers the flight with an experienced pilot, a safety briefing, harness, helmet and gloves, and the shuttle back from the landing site.
Season, weather and the time of day
Flights at Kronplatz are advertised through the year, and the Plose operator also flies in winter. Whether you go up on a given day depends on wind, rain and thunderstorms, which can stop afternoon flights. No time of day is better in general, so choose a slot that leaves room to move. On the Plose there is no flight in bad weather or unfavourable wind.
Which tandem flight suits you
Choose Kronplatz at €149 or €159 if you are based around Bruneck or the Pustertal and want the lowest price. Choose the Plose at €179 if you are staying around Brixen and want to fly over the Brixen basin. If the weather stops your flight, a walk through Bolzano fills the day, and our page on South Tyrol tours lists more activities.
