Parachute jumping at Saint-Florentin, a unique experience

In the heart of Burgundy, you'll have the chance to fly over the commune of Saint-Florentin, the Burgundy vineyards and other wonders of the region.

Jump procedure

• On arrival at the airfield, you'll undergo a 20-minute theoretical training session. Your instructor will explain the rules for safe practice.
• Board the plane and climb for 15 minutes, reaching the release altitude of 4,000 meters. Admire the Burgundian landscape as you feel the excitement of your first jump building!
• Then it's time for the big jump: 50 seconds of pure freefall, hooked by a harness to your instructor, at an average speed of 200 km/h!
• At 1,500 meters, the instructor will open the parachute, allowing you to enjoy an 8-minute canopy ride. After the adrenalin rush of freefall, you'll have a chance to admire the scenery and take control of the parachute.
• The instructor will land you gently on the landing field. Once on the airport tarmac, you can tell your friends and family about your experience.
