My name is Noel Roje. I’m originally from the Bülach region, I speak five languages, and I’ve been living in Lucerne since August 2023. At the foot of Mount Pilatus I feel right at home — perfectly placed to live my passion for paragliding. Whether I’m flying with guests or solo in the clear mountain air, every flight feels like pure freedom and a moment I won’t forget.

Safety is my top priority — and the trust that comes with it. I want every passenger, young or old, to feel understood, comfortable, and in good hands. With open communication, I can adapt to your wishes so every flight becomes a personal, relaxed, and special experience.
✅ Experience since 2016: Over eight years of paragliding experience in the Alps.
✅ Tandem flights since December 2023: Thorough training and first tandem season right here at Pilatus.
✅ Versatile flying style: From smooth ridge soaring to dynamic thermal flying with real G-forces.
✅ Launch marshal & assistant instructor: Sharing knowledge at paraworld.ch and genuinely enjoying coaching.
✅ Flow moments: A personal highlight was my cross-country flight from Bellinzona (Mornera) to Davos Wiesen on 22 April 2025 — full of intuition and freedom.
✅ Personality: Open, curious, and direct — just like my flying.
I take my time. Because I don’t rely exclusively on tandem flying as my only income, I can focus on experience and quality rather than efficiency. I’m happy to share my knowledge, explain what’s happening in the air — and if you like, you can even take the controls for a moment. And if you love rollercoasters, I can promise this: you’ll fly upside down — personal, free, and unforgettable.
If you agree to the conditions below and the weather is suitable, you can book right here on this page — and you’ll fly with me for sure.
I’m looking forward to taking off with you.
There’s no strict age limit, but a basic level of fitness is required. Flying isn’t ideal for children under six, though it may be possible after prior consultation – as long as they meet the minimum height requirement of 1.20 meters.
Minimum height: 1.20 meters
Maximum height: 2.20 meters
Weight: 15 to 100 kg – Flights for passengers over 100 kg are possible on selected days with strong updrafts.
Please note: Flights must be done sober. For safety reasons, full responsiveness and decision-making ability are required.
Up to 48 hours before your flight, you can reschedule yourself or cancel for a 95% refund or a voucher—after that, the deposit is retained, and within 24 hours the flight is charged. (GTC)
Reschedule until 48h before: Change your date online yourself (no support needed).
Cancel until 48h before: Choose 95% refund or a voucher.
Less than 48h before: The deposit is kept to cover planning and short-notice cancellation costs.
Within 24h / no-show: The flight is charged and any voucher entitlement expires, as the slot can rarely be rebooked at such short notice.
As a tandem pilot at Mount Pilatus, I’ve been accompanying guests from all over the world on paragliding flights over Lucerne for many years. The combination of dramatic mountain scenery, Lake Lucerne (Vierwaldstättersee), and the local thermals around Pilatus makes this area one of the most spectacular flying sites in Switzerland.
Whether you’re looking for a private tandem flight as a gift, a special moment, or simply want to take off with an experienced tandem pilot — with me, the focus is on you as a person. I take time for your questions, a thorough briefing, and your personal flight experience. No mass tourism, no rush — just real tandem paragliding in Switzerland the way it should be: individual, safe, and unforgettable.
You can book your tandem flight with Noel Roje directly online — whether you prefer a short glide or want to stay longer in the air with thermals and cross-country style flying. I’ll fly with you when it fits — and only then.
Meet our tandem pilots here. With one click on “Book a flight with me now”, you’ll go straight to the pilot’s calendar where you can instantly check availability and book.
