"There are plenty of bucketlist flights to do in CH, some will be more impressive due to the scenery (Mürren and its crazy cliff faces) or the surrounding landmarks (Zermatt Matterhorn), but the most beautiful flight you will ever have in Switzerland is in late summer (Aug-Sept), taking the last train from Montreux to "Rochers de Naye", getting off at "Jaman" and then taking off into the golden sunset over the Leman. Thermal/soar until the sun goes down and go land in Villeneuve. A similar flight can be had in Locarno (Ticino) above the Lago Maggiore"
"Rigi Staffelhohe to Goldau (can also soar up to Kulm when conditions are good)
Rothorn to Zermatt (morning flight - afternoon landings in Zermatt can be 🔥🌶️)
Grindelwald First to Grindelwald (lovely views)
Murren to Stechelberg (once the new Seilbahn construction is finished)
When there is Bise: Hummel (soaring) or Rigi Scheidegg (soaring)
For the a nice evening flight (maybe with some soaring)Niederbauen to Emmetten"
"Arosa to Chur in autumn/winter when the valley wind allows to land in Chur (very long glide without need of thermals)
Interlaken Schiniige Platte for Evening Flights
Braunwald/Gumen has nice mountain views around it and is great both in Summer and Winter"
