You step out of the coach as the air slants cold from the high peaks and the two lakes—Thun and Brienz—flash like coins below. Interlaken’s streets hum with the quiet bustle of outdoor travelers; above, paragliders weave like birds while your transport pulls up for a different kind of ascent.
The jump begins with a short scenic flight that lifts you above the Bernese Oberland, offering a clear line on the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau—granite faces carved by glacial ice and time. Interlaken has drawn visitors since the 1600s, first as a health and alpine retreat, later as a hub for mountaineers and railways that opened the high valleys to tourism.
Geology here is stark: towering sedimentary ridges, glacially scoured valleys, and lakes dammed by moraines. Local culture is pragmatic and service-oriented, from mountain guides to fondue taverns that refuel jumpers and families alike.
Practically: expect a full-day commitment from Lausanne, up to 12 hours door to door, with the skydive sequence—training, a 15–20 minute aircraft climb to roughly 4,000 m, a ~45-second freefall at ~200 km/h, and a 5-minute canopy ride. Weather controls proceedings; operations prioritize safety and may cancel for clouds, wind or low visibility.
Bring layered clothing, secure footwear, and the right ID; listen closely to your tandem master and disclose medical conditions. Hydrate, avoid heavy meals immediately before jumping, and plan some recovery time in Interlaken to soak up alpine views before returning to the city.

Typical jumps are from about 4,000 m with an approximate 45-second freefall and a five-minute parachute flight to land.
No prior skydiving skills required—this is a tandem jump guided by a certified instructor, though you must meet physical and size requirements.
Interlaken grew from a 17th-century alpine retreat into a 19th-century tourist hub linked by rail, drawing mountaineers and visitors to the Jungfrau massif.
The Bernese Alps are managed for both tourism and habitat protection; stick to marked landing zones and trails, respect local wildlife, and note that aerial activities follow regulated airspace and noise guidelines.
