If you dream of jumping with a jumping in the Basque province of Gipuzkoa, you have come to the right place to make your dreams come true, and complete safety. In the following section we will tell you everything you need to know about how and where to practise this exciting air sport. We recommend that you don't think about it any longer because, without a doubt, a skydiving is one of the most adrenaline-full and rewarding experiences you will ever enjoy, so leave your nerves and fears behind because with what we will tell you below and write down everything you have to do to practice skydiving in this region.

Where can I go skydiving in Gipuzkoa? In this province you will have it relatively easy as there are not too many aerodromes or companies with which you can go skydiving. However, the only one you can venture with will give you an idyllic and really exciting experience, as you will be able to try the skydive at a much higher altitude than normal and visit a beautiful spot just a few hours away from the city of Gipuzkoa, in the charming French city of Pau, at the Lasclaveries aerodrome. Let yourself be carried away by this beautiful little French corner that will also offer you a different perspective of the Pyrenees if you decide to go sightseeing before or after your skydiving jump. Don't leave your take-off and landing spot without taking a quick tour around!

Luckily, you won't have to choose from a long list of places to skydive around Gipuzkoa. And yes, we mean fortunately because by reducing the number of options, the choice becomes much easier and the sooner you decide to take the "big jump", the less time you will have to hesitate, and the sooner you will be enjoying this experience which is a real fantasy impossible to describe with words.

That said, surely your unconscious is playing tricks on you, making you think you can't do it because you are scared or lack any experience in this. Don't let it play tricks on you because it's an adventure for which you won't need any skill nor experience, since the parachute jump will be performed in tandem mode, which means that you'll be "hooked" to a professional skydiving instructor with a harness waistcoat and other safety systems. You don't need to come prepared with anything but comfortable clothes and all the desire of the world to live the best adventure of your life.

Needless to say, you don't have to worry about the risk of it, since this activity is way safer than it seems. All the staff are qualified professionals with a great deal of experience and constantly subject all the equipment to tests and safety checks. Paradoxically, skydiving is one of the safest extreme sport!

Once you arrive at the Lasclaveries aerodrome, the skydiving instructors will receive you to start with an initial training, explaining you all the protocol and steps to follow before jumping from the plane. When you have no more doubts in your mind and the rest of the skydivers are ready like you, you will go to the plane and start the ascent. In this case, you'll enjoy a 4000m jump, when the usual is 3000m, so be sure you'll get the purest adrenaline there is. Every thousand metres an alarm will sound indicating the altitude and when you reach the maximum height, you'll jump into the void and enjoy the experience preferred by all those who jump by parachute, 1 minute of free fall at about 220 km/h enjoying the speed and spectacular views. After 60 exalting seconds your instructor will open the parachute and during 8-10 minutes of calm and peaceful flight you will glide through the clouds until you land.

Once you and your instructor have touched land, all that will be left is to scream with excitement, or try to get your breath back, and try to calm the uncontrollable high of all kinds of emotions that you will have felt during the 15 minutes or so of flight where your body and the sensations it feels will be the only thing on your mind.

Venture to fulfil your longed-for fantasy of being able to fly and take a short trip to French soil if you are in Gipuzkoa. It's an experience that doesn't disappoint, although it does create a certain addiction, so we have no doubt that when you try it once, you'll repeat it whenever you need a good injection of adrenaline and motivation.
