Is Interlaken the best place to paraglide in Switzerland?
It is where most reviewers on GetYourGuide flew: we won't go further than that.
The Interlaken tourist office calls it world-famous as an ideal area for paragliding, and says guests land on the Höhematte almost every day. That is its own claim.
