Wandelen – 2100

Wandelen – 2100 is a high alpine paragliding launch in central Switzerland, sitting at roughly 2,100 m — the name marks the site by its own altitude. It's unusually versatile on wind, workable from north, southwest, west or northwest, which gives pilots more options for a flyable day than most single-aspect alpine launches. At this altitude, expect a genuine mountain environment: real elevation, changeable conditions through the day, and a launch that likely needs either a serious hike or lift access to reach, though neither is documented on this listing. Beyond the basic facts, the record here is thin — no takeoff description, landing field, access route or local hazards on file. Treat this page as a starting point rather than a full briefing, and confirm current access, landing options and Swiss airspace restrictions with a central-Switzerland flying school or club before your first flight here.

Check conditions before you fly

A forecast for the valley is not a forecast for the launch. Before heading to Wandelen – 2100, read the wind and thermals for the site itself, confirm the day's rules with the local club, and remember the standing rule — when in doubt, don't launch.
