Fiescheralp gondola station

Coordinates: 46°24’45″ N   8°06’12″ E   2210m ASL   Orientation: ESE

Unfortunately, the header image is now of historical interest only, as the ramp, which was conveniently located next to the gondola station, has been lost as a consequence of heavy snowfall one winter.  However, hang gliders have still been using this small area to take off since then, as it was decided to reshape the terrain rather than to replace the ramp.

I have never seen solo paragliders launch here, probably because it is seen as the province of hang glider and local commercial tandem pilots.
