Locations to Jump from a Hot Air Baloon

Recommended Posts

Google for balloon companies and ask if they offer one way tickets ;-) no seriously, just text them and ask if you can join on a tourist trip. They normally already pay a shitload of money for that so it should be pretty cheap for you. And many ballooners are very happy to see some skydivers jump too. Just ask :-)

Hi guys, just wondering if anyone knows any places where I can jump from a hot air baloon? Particularly in Europe or Australia?



Germany, Paranodon Illertissen. Ask for Robert Trögele (DZO), his brother runs a ballooning business. Complete with balloonist babtism and shuttle service, somewhere around 90€. Great experience. Hit me up if you're interested. :)

I would be very interested! im going to be in Germany July this year and I would love to do this as part of my trip, is there a specific licence restriction? Also do they do rig rental? Thanks!

You need to have 100+ jumps total. Renting gear is no problem, we have everything from 230-107 sqft.
As a new jumper at our DZ you'd be asked to do a few normal skydives at our place beforehand so that you can get familiar with the landscape.
