Most Lucerne visitors don't realise that one of Switzerland's best paragliding sites is just 15 minutes away by train. The Lake Lucerne region looks extraordinary from above — the fjord-like arms of the lake, the surrounding Alps, the Rigi and the Pilatus. A 40-minute flight gives you time to genuinely absorb it all.
