At Skydive Interlaken we pride ourselves on having a friendly, relaxed atmosphere while offering a very unique experience. The only way to maneuver through valleys, glaciers and high mountain peaks is with a helicopter, and this is why at Skydive Interlaken we choose to jump from these aircraft. This makes it very special and rare as there are not may other dropzones around the world that jump solely from a helicopter.
