Guided trip

Hike & fly in the Allgäu with OASE

The three-day hike & fly tour in the Allgäu with OASE Flugschule is aimed mainly at pilots who want to try hike & fly for the first time or swap their usual equipment for a light kit. A small group of at most eight pilots hikes with an OASE instructor or mountain guide to approved launches away from the busy hills, sometimes combining the climb with a lift; the mountain and start time are chosen the day before according to wind and weather. The climbs are easy-going, about two to three hours. The guide helps with launch and flight-technique analysis, gives site briefings and stays in radio contact. Light equipment can be hired for a fee. Guiding, the school-bus transfer to the starting point and launch and landing fees are included; travel to the Allgäu, accommodation and meals are extra.
