The meeting point at Lake Tegernsee is also easily accessible by public transport. You can travel directly from Munich to Lake Tegernsee in around an hour on the Bayerische Regiobahn (BRB). From there, the regional bus will take you to the meeting point in just a few minutes.

The Wallberg is one of the most popular flying hills near Munich. The view of the deep-blue Lake Tegernsee, Rottach-Egern, the surrounding peaks and, on a clear day, far into the Alpine foothills is particularly impressive.

Yes – that’s exactly what makes this flying area so special. In good conditions, you can enjoy spectacular views of the lake and the surrounding mountains.

Tandem flights over Tegernsee are available all year round. Each season in the Bavarian Oberland has its own distinct character, making the flying experience uniquely special.

From the Wallberg above Tegernsee, the lake, mountains and landscape reveal themselves from a new perspective with every passing season:
 

  • Spring: Fresh mountain air, the first warm days, clear visibility and nature coming to life around Lake Tegernsee.
  • Summer: Rich colours, a deep blue lake, long days and ideal conditions for impressive panoramic flights.
  • Autumn: Particularly popular due to the often clear views, colourful forests and tranquil atmosphere over the lake.
  • Winter: Snow-capped peaks, clear air and often particularly calm conditions for relaxed gliding flights against a dreamlike winter backdrop.

Generally speaking, the most thermally active period is from March to October. During these months, updrafts occur more frequently, enabling particularly beautiful and sometimes longer flights. The winter months, on the other hand, are often ideal for calmer, leisurely scenic and gliding flights.

The best conditions always depend on the weather, wind and time of day. That is precisely why we carefully select each flying day and the flying area – so that you can enjoy a safe and unforgettable experience at Lake Tegernsee or in another flying area.

Yes – of course. A voucher for a tandem flight over Tegernsee is one of the most popular experience gifts around. Instead of giving something material, you’re giving the gift of a truly memorable moment: flying over Lake Tegernsee with views of the lake, the mountains and the Alpine panorama.

The voucher is particularly popular as a gift for:

  • Birthdays
  • Christmas
  • Weddings or anniversaries
  • Valentine’s Day
  • A surprise for partners, friends or family
  • A special thank you

The recipient can then arrange a date flexibly and redeem the experience to suit the season. A tandem flight voucher at Tegernsee is ideal for people who prefer to receive experiences rather than things.
