    We would like to fit in all three activities if possible, but are certainly open to alternative suggestions.

    We arrive in Lauterbrunnen at 1:30 in the afternoon from Basel. I was thinking we could paraglide that first afternoon as Airtime said our luggage would be no problem. We would then travel on to our base in Wengen.

    However, recent posts make us think it would be better to paralide in the morning? Which becomes more of an issue with the two mountain trips and the weather. We had planned to get to each mountain first thing in the morning. Should we paraglide in the morning and forego Jungfraujoch and maybe go do the activities at First?

    Thank you!

    Hi TCordz,

    I think on average, all those activities might be best to try in the morning, but that doesn’t mean the afternoon won’t be great or better. You can’t predict the weather 🙂 At least not more than 24-48 hours in the mountains.

    I’d check with your paragliding company and see what they think; as that is the only thing you need to, or should try to, pre-book. The other mountains should be decided upon based on the weather and your free time that day.
