AROSA, PARAGLIDING
Paragliders at Arosa, Switzerland ‘take off’ from the Weisshorn mountain (2,600m approx.) and, in the winter at least, often land on the frozen and snow covered Obersee Lake near the centre of the town. Needless to say, this is not an accident free sport. It is understood that strong or irregular winds can be a particular problem. The author, however, has no first-hand knowledge of paragliding and is not seeking any. The photos in this gallery were taken in 2009, 2011, 2014, 2015 and 2017.
