11th World Cup Superfinal will take place in Disentis called in local language Mustér is a village and a municipality in the Surselva Region in the Swiss canton of Graubünden.

It lies on the highest step of the Rhine valley, where the roads of the Oberalp pass coming from central and western Switzerland and of the Lukmanier pass coming from the Ticino meet. It has a station where the line from Brig meets the line from Chur and is connected by train and road to the Valais via the Oberalp pass and to Chur following the Rhine valley. The Lukmanier pass road is in summer served by a post bus line. (Sorce Wikipedia).

Surounded by impresive mountain masives, valleys and gletchers provides spectacular landscape for paragliding racing and more.

11th World Cup Superfinal is unique in many ways as it is first evet Superfinal held in the Alps. It is first Superfinal since 10th (2018 season one), as the global health situation forced PWCA to cancel Superfinal that was suposed be held in Brazil and was not able to held one in 2020. Therefore this superfinal will be the finest selection of top pilots from 2019 Superfinal, Season 2020 and 2021.
