Skydiving in Interlaken is widely considered one of the most scenic jumps in the world. Your experience begins with a 15-20 minute scenic flight, taking you past the iconic 'Big Three' peaks—the Eiger, Mönch, and Jungfrau. Once you reach altitude, you'll exit the aircraft for an exhilarating 45-second freefall at speeds of 200kph (120mph).

Real experiences from real travelers
The views of the Eiger and Jungfrau are unreal. The freefall felt longer than 45 seconds and was pure adrenaline. Our instructor was professional and made me feel safe the whole time.
Booked the trip from Zurich. It was a long day but perfectly organized. Skydiving over the lakes of Interlaken is something I will never forget. Truly the best way to see Switzerland.
The flight up was like a tour in itself. The jump was terrifying but amazing. Only wish I had booked the video package in advance!
I've jumped in New Zealand and Hawaii, but Interlaken takes the cake. The mountain scenery is just on another level. The team was super friendly and the landing was soft.
The contrast between the blue lakes and white mountains from above is spectacular. A very smooth process from pickup in Geneva to the jump.
Taking the tour from Lausanne made it so easy. We explored Interlaken afterward. The skydive itself was the highlight of my European trip.
The instructors really know how to keep you calm and excited. The scenic flight before the jump is a great bonus. High quality gear and very safe.
I was nervous, but the tandem master was very experienced. Seeing the Swiss Alps from the air while falling is a dream come true.
