Spectators Information

Please keep in mind: Paragling competitions are highly weather dependent. The detailed daily program will be planned by the task setting crew every morining based on the weather condition of the day. If a competition will be started and when it will be we have to decide on the take off.

Anyway we will do the best to keep you up-to-date. The informations will be published every morning around 9:00 on the news section of our website and on the Swiss Hang Gliding & Paragliding Association SHPA stand in the Eigerlive villiage in Grindelwald!

Interessting parts for spectators where  the pilots breifing and  the race start on the take off. The goal arrival is interessting as well, but it's relatively uncertain how many pilots and when pilots will arrive there.
