Hang Gliding 100km Through the Swiss Mountains
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 มิ.ย. 2022
- I made it over to Interlaken in Switzerland and with in 24 hours I managed to get around 80km of sightseeing in. I have very little knowledge of the area so the guided tour from Peter at Bumblebee Hang gliding was warmly welcomed. The flight was relatively easy with wide spread lift despite little sun getting through. I’m looking forward to seeing some more of these peaks over the next few weeks. Hopefully I can bring you a few more videos over the summer.
Thanks loads to Bumblebee Tandem Hang Gliding for getting me up the hill and Peter for showing me around. If you’re in the area and want to have a go at hang gliding hit me up or hit Bumblebee up

Probably the best hang gliding soaring video. Thanks for showing people how beautiful hang gliding can be.
Definitely one of my hang gliding dream destination!
It’s awesome, you’ll love it! Something for everybody here!
Nice flight in an epic scenery... I am a bit scared of flying next to this big lakes with less landing places, but if the air is so active - looks like a nice day - well spent!
I didn’t know how limited the landing options were until about three days after the flight 😬
Hahaha having a guide does really help
You are a proper HG blogger Pete . Great video !
Brilliant
,,,literally I'm watching this movie or part of it every morning, so beautiful, so inspiring Pete!!!
Thanks 🙏🏼. Great to hear
That made me smile and brought back some memories love that place.
Good to hear! I can see why you liked it here!
Thank you so beautiful
Smashing it Pete. Best video yet. Just look at that view !!
Cheers mate! Scenery is incredible
Awsome experience.
Thanks for sharing.
Cheers from Brazil 🇧🇷
Very nice video Pete. thanks for sharing.
absolutely amazing. thanks for sharing Pete
Brilliant. Thanks Pete. Keep these up and you w ill have a convert.
Beautiful flight. Congratulation!!! Rio de Janeiro - Brazil
Brilliant I echo.
No radio coms between you and guide? Guess it's more exciting to blindly follow. Like anyone would need more excitement you absolute animal 😎😉💓
No radio coms, just lots of shouting and frantically waving 😅. The plus side of doing it this way is that the batteries never go flat 🤓 (although line of sight is relied on more)
Beautiful
Epic flight. It's on my dreams!
Amazing flight! Really enjoyed the narration and editing style as well. Cheers!
Thanks for that! 🙂
epic ,,, loved it
Brilliant Pete, thank you.
all it needed was a bit of yodelling.
Cheers Donald. I’ll do the world a favour and save my yodeling for a soundproof room 😂
Editing is phenomenal!
Thanks 🙏🏽
ANOTHER LOOK ,,, THATS SPECCY MAN
WOW! Thanks for posting 📫👍
So sick my bro!
Cheers bro 🤙🏼
Beautiful flight for such a cloudy day, it'd be so hard to do that with a paraglider. It almost makes me regret flying paragliders instead of hanggliding 😄 except I forgot I'm at work with a small bag waiting for me to be done 🪂🪂
No regrets needed, they both have their own perks. Sure i enjoy flying hang gliders more but my paraglider is much more convenient. If you can learn to fly both I’d highly recommend it 🙂
Spent a whole week there once with Smithy. Got one flight in. It rained a lot.
I think it’s rained at least a small amount every day I’ve been here so far 😂
Bloody awesome vid mate 😎
Cheers mate, hopefully more to come 🤓
This was brilliant. Except for that one time where it hit choppy most of the time the air mass seemed pretty smooth. I flew the tail end of a front 2 days ago and boy was it nasty. It had some residual effect that even yesterday it was causing all sorts of lifted wing and kick outs.
Awesome...👍🏼💪🏻
So you were the hang glider that flew over my house. Was in my room and looked out the window and saw a blue hang glider near Harder Kulm ^^
Maybe so yes 🥳🤙🏼
Awesome! I’ve only been there once for test flying a wing I got for the Worlds in 2019, but was amazed with the place, and my short-ish flights weren’t anywhere near this nice tour you got there! Awesome flying and edit 👏
I’ve got to return there, I see Beau is back there enjoying yet another summer in paradise 👍
Cheers bro 🙂🤙🏼. Beau is here, he says hi 👍🏼
@@petehelliwell thanks, wish I was there! Enjoy 👍
I'd never have worked out the pig in s**t metaphor without the explanation... ;-)
Haha, I’m glad it helped 😂
Pretty dam epic 🤘
Great flight, thanks for sharing. Which 360 camera do you use and how do you get your voice so bright without wind noice ?
Cheers, it was a pretty cool flight, totally unexpected. I’m using the Insta360 one x2 and a Rode Lavalier GO external mic
@@petehelliwell That microphone is a professional one. Where do you have it mounted, right next to the insta360 or at the downtube or ... ?
@@sanderdelta It is a good one yes, definitely worth the money. I have it on my tshirt underneath my flying top. The extension wire for it to reach the camera is permanently routed up the down tube (or is should that be down the upright?)
@@petehelliwell Is it al wire? not wireless? since Rode also got very good wireless equipment.
What is the route of the wire, through the upright to the top and then through the hangloop down?
@@sanderdelta yes that’s the route exactly. With a few connectors in between so it’s easy to take the harness off etc. I did think about going wireless but I was put off by the split second delay in the audio, Bluetooth connectivity issues and the extra items to charge
beautiful views, why speed up?
Your right, the views are stunning. The speed up (or hyper lapse) gives a better idea of the distance, direction and what is actually happening . A bit like a time lapse of the clouds or the stars, you could watch it for an hour and barely see it change or reduce the hour to a few seconds and see exactly what happened 🙂. If i edited the video without the hyper lapse it would of been about four hours long with lots of boring bits in it.
Epic flight, mate. Well done!
When flying along the ridge I noticed that you were not so close but rather 50-100m away from it. Isn't the lift normally coming off the tips of the mountains?
Thanks!
Yeah the lift a bit closer in could probably be a bit stronger but probably not as smooth. Also remember that these are big mountains and the whole airmass along their face is going up due to the heat and instability. And although there is a big ridge along the side there is still a lot of following the clouds and sometimes those clouds are further out in front. It is different to ridge soaring on smaller hills when the rising air is ‘mechanical’ lift caused by the prevailing wind.
@@petehelliwell Right on. Thanks for the enlightenment, man. I appreciate it.
Epic!
I didn’t see a lot of LZs as you ran the ridge next to the lake. Where’re they bailouts?
Unbeknown to me at the time but yeah, the landings are apparently very limited along the lakes. I found out a few days later 😬
I saw a lot of rotation(360) in one spot when you were gliding?
Were u doing that on purpose or was a wind or something?
It's done on purpose in thermal area (where air rises due to heat) to gain height. It's used by birds as well to gain height with less effort possible (reason why they do thousands of miles flying pretty easily).
@@mathematicromancio oohhh. That makes sense
Thanks 👍
Did u have any problems with your glider on the commercial plane or did u have to extra airmail it by special cargo? I usually end up having endless discussions with the airlines about oversize cargo. Last trip to Pakistan was a logistical nightmare regarding the glider.
I’ve never put a hang glider on the plane. It’s more favourable to own gliders in different countries when ever possible. Yes it’s more expensive until you have a glider written off by the airline and then you are buying another glider anyway..
When is the best season to fly there?
Good spring days come out of Oct-Dec. Nice summer flying Jan-Feb
Please help me figure out how to color a paraglider like yours. Thank you very much.
I’m actually colour blind would you believe! Genuinely!🤯
Nice I'm pakistn
Sounds a bit like they have rubber pianos in Switzerland.
They do! Loads!
@@petehelliwell It's still better than Darren Brown's singing, though.
Saw more of you than the scenery
I appreciate the flattery 🙂
Nobody is interested i watching videos that are distorted totally out of any recognizable proportions. Please film your flying so that your glider and the ground look the way they really do.
