Helicopter flight from Samedan / St. Moritz

Samedan Airport is the highest airport in Europe and an ideal starting point for helicopter flights into the high Alps of Graubünden. From here, you can reach the most impressive regions of the Eastern Alps within minutes: the Bernina Group with the region's only four-thousand-meter peak, the wild Bergell valley with its granite slopes, and extensive glacial landscapes.

Depending on the option chosen, the flight is either a pure scenic flight, a round trip with a stopover, or an exclusive transfer flight. All flights are operated by pilots specially trained for mountain flying and are available year-round – with the exception of the winter option with a landing at Corvatsch. Flights are subject to weather, visibility, and safety conditions.
