Extra Activities
- Skydiving - The ultimate thrill & adrenaline rush! Jump from up to 1400 ft/ 4300 m over Interlaken with a breathtaking view of the Alps, and the feeling of falling into free air from 0 to 200 km/h. One of the few places in the world where you have the option of skydiving from a HELICOPTER!! Price– CHF 430
- Skiing/Snowboarding - rental equipment, lift ticket, and train to the mountain are all at the drop-off location. Price - CHF 62 for a basic lift ticket but typically costs 110-150 CHF with ticket and rentals (depending on your rental equipment)
- Paragliding - the best way to fly as you'll soar and sail above Interlaken. It's a bit "tamer" (ie - less "scary") than skydiving, and the flight is longer. Price - from CHF 160
- Night Sledding - Take in the starlit winter panorama and then zip down the 1 hour long sled run. The sled run finishes at a small local restaurant where we enjoy a traditional Swiss cheese fondue dinner. Takes about 4 hours, begins around 6pm. Price - CHF 95 with cheese fondue and CHF 69 without cheese fondue.
- Snow Shoe Trekking - Explore snowy forests and remote mountain villages and experience the Switzerland tourists never see. Snowshoeing is the perfect alternative for people who don't want to ski. The hiking is made easy by wearing special shoes on your feet that allow you to walk on top of the snow. Takes about 4 hours. Price - CHF 95
- Ice Skating (at ice rink in Interlaken). Price - CHF 9
