Description
Matterhorn plus glacier landing. Conditions: Private flight per the shop. Departure: Sion.
One of the most spectacular helicopter flights in Switzerland: in around 50 minutes of flight time from Sion Airport, you head into the heart of the high Valais Alps, past mighty four-thousanders, glaciers and deep high valleys, with the Matterhorn as a landmark. The highlight is the landing in the eternal ice: during a roughly 30-minute stopover with an apéritif you take in the alpine panorama in complete silence.
The flight is typically operated with an AS350 Ecureuil seating up to five passengers. The precise route is agreed individually with the pilot before take-off and may vary slightly depending on the weather. The glacier landing takes place on a mountain landing site and may be cancelled at short notice for safety reasons. Warm, windproof clothing and sturdy footwear are recommended.
