Activity description

Come and discover the pleasures of skydiving at Auxerre airport with a qualified and experienced instructor in the heart of Burgundy-Franche-Comté!

Paris Jump is a skydiving centre approved by the French Skydiving Federation. The school offers you the simplest way to discover the sensations of freefall: a tandem parachute jump!

You will be firmly attached to an instructor equipped with a two-seater parachute. All instructors are licensed and qualified by the Ministry of Youth and Sports and have several thousand jumps to their credit.

Before boarding the plane, you will have a briefing of about 20 minutes. The climb in the plane lasts about 15 minutes to reach an altitude of between 3000 and 4000 metres.

The average speed of the freefall is 200 km/h and lasts about 50 seconds. When you reach an altitude of 1,500 metres, the pilot opens the parachute and you fly under canopy for about 8 minutes. You contemplate the landscapes of Burgundy and take control of the parachute then the instructor gently lands you on the landing zone.
