Skydive Interlaken

Skydive Interlaken runs out of helicopters with 5 slots, so if there's two tandems there's often a spare slot for a fun jumper. They fly to 8.5-10.5k above Interlaken, or out next to the Eiger (which I didn't get to do). The offices are about 30 min walk out of town, so pretty easy to get to.

I did 3 jumps over Interlaken in one day in March, which was when there was still some snow on the mountain tops, but wasn't too cold down in the valley. If you've only ever jumped out of planes in rural areas its quite the experience. Best appreciated head-up and watching the mountains go up while you fall down.

The staff were friendly and super-accommodating, going so far as to help me arrange jumping at Skydive Switzerland the following day.

Definitely worth a visit if you're out here!

I had my first jump with these guys and I think it couldn't be better than this! I was actually tempted to do a jump the next day, but due to traveling reasons I didn't.

This jump was just perfect and motivated me to get a license myself.

The landscape is just awesome, I will definitely come back again (from Central America!) to jump here again.

This past weekend I had the pleasure of skydiving at Skydive Interlaken. the people there were
extremely friendly and in no time I leaped out of a nice red chopper! The view there is spectacular
and I would recommend it to any skydiver or beginner. (They run a tandem operation, but they
will fit you in on the helicopter if they have an odd slot)

Also a shout of thanks to the guys at the funny farm hostel for their kindness!

The people up there are fantastic, the scenery unbelievable, the rental gear is in good condition the video guys are great, and the atmosphere is perfect for some fun, relaxing jumps. If ever you're in Switzerland, stop by. Seeing the alps from above will change your life!
