We start the 2026 flying season together – with a season opening including a testival directly at the Salzkammergut flying school in St. Gilgen.
Together with the Salzburg Flying School and the Paragliding Store we invite pilots, flight students and Hike&Fly enthusiasts to test the latest gliders and equipment of the current season and to exchange ideas directly with the manufacturers.
Included are:
On site you will have the opportunity to fly the latest equipment under real conditions on the Zwölferhorn, compare technical details and get sound advice.

An official area briefing will take place at 10:00 am.
Meeting point: Flugschule Salzkammergut, Konrad-Lesiak-Platz 5, 5340 St. Gilgen
Ideal for new pilots and anyone who wants to get to know the flying area better.
Procedure
It starts at 09:00 at our flying school – rent wings, get to know the manufacturers, talk shop and of course fly. The Testival runs until 16:00.
At 10:00 a.m., we will have a joint briefing on the Zwölferhorn – ideal for anyone who wants to get to know the area better or start the season safely. The meeting point is directly at the flying school.
After a flight-intensive day, we end the start of the season in a cozy atmosphere at Dragan’s Poststüberl.
We are looking forward to a strong start to the season, intensive technical discussions and many joint flights at Lake Wolfgang.
