Skydiving in BEX – Tandem jumping from a plane – From CHF 430.00

Tandem parachute jump over Lavaux and Glacier 3000 at Bex in the canton of Vaud

It’s a chance to free yourself from the daily grind and explore a new world, that of skydiving.

As soon as you arrive at our dropzone, you’ll be greeted by one of our instructor-pilots. A bond of trust is quickly established with your adventure companion. First of all, you put on the right equipment for your size. Then together you repeat a few movements and positions of the body and head. You’ll then be able to enjoy free-fall without any effort on your part. Then it’s time for the two of you to board the plane. We’re off! The plane takes off for an ascent to 4000 m above ground level. Your pilot’s vast experience has given you confidence and you’re relatively relaxed. During the ascent, you can see the Verbier 3000 glacier and Lake Geneva below you. At an altitude of 4,000 m, the plane’s pilot gives the GO to jump. One last check from your pilot, everything’s OK and you’re both propelling yourselves out of the plane. You’ll fall at over 50 m/s or nearly 200 km/h; extreme sensations for around 50 seconds. It’s time to open the parachute in safety at 1500 m altitude. The sound of the wind fades away, the speed is reduced to silence and a feeling of plenitude. You continue your descent and admire the landscape below you. You land softly on our Bex dropzone. Order a video of your tandem skydive when you book on our website to keep as a souvenir. We have a free-fall simulator in Sion (Valais) and another near Zurich in Winterthur. They are designed for those who are understandably apprehensive about jumping straight into the adventure. The sensations experienced thanks to this wind tunnel are very similar to a real free-fall.

If you have any questions, just give us a call. We’re here to advise you and reassure you if you have any concerns.

We also do tandem jumps at Écuvillens and Épagny. But we also do tandem parachute jumping in Interlaken from a helicopter and in Reichenbach from a plane. Then we have a dropzone at Beromünster and Triengen airfields in the canton of Lucerne. What’s more, we’re also jumping in tandem at Colombier on Lake Neuchâtel. We also parachute from Grenchen airfield in the canton of Solothurn.
We also have two dropzones in Valais, one in Rarogne and the other in Sion. At the same time, we do tandem jumps in eastern Switzerland, in Sitterdorf in the canton of Thurgau. But also jumps in Locarno, Ticino. And from Rottweil in Germany, near Basel.
