Forty-five minutes built around a single summit. The climb runs up the Val d'Anniviers, between the walls of the Besso and the hanging glaciers, to the Matterhorn pyramid, approached at ridge height facing the Hoernli route. The return goes down the Val d'Herens and over the Grande Dixence dam, the highest gravity dam in the world at 285 metres. The mountain landing is included in the price, with a bottle of wine offered by the operator. The aircraft is chartered whole, five seats on board. Price converted from Swiss francs.
Frequently asked questions
Can the aircraft be chartered privately?
Yes. All our scenic flights can be privatised — the whole aircraft to yourself, whatever the number of passengers. It is also the only way to guarantee an exact departure time, since a shared flight depends on the aircraft filling up.
What happens if the weather is bad?
A flight never departs in degraded conditions: the decision rests with the pilot, usually the day before. The flight is then postponed, or refunded, according to the operator's own terms — we reproduce them word for word on each page, before any request.
Can children fly?
Yes, from the age of 2 on most aircraft, and on an adult's lap below that age depending on the operator. Each passenger's weight is requested at booking so the aircraft can be correctly balanced.
