Spend a pleasant day among the clouds and waves of Balaton!

We leave the capital by bus to the western direction and after an hour driving we reach the largest sweet water lake in Middle-Europe, called Balaton. It is 76 kilometres long and from 1.5 to 14 kilometres wide. The northern part of it is a hilly landscape while the southern coast is totally flat. This is the most popular holiday area in Hungary.

Our first program is the parachuting. During this program you can live through the feeling of free fall and you can enjoy the amazing panoramic.

When we arrive to the airport, you will pull on the special clothes and belt. This belt will connect you with the tandem pilot. We relate it in some minutes and we practise it too, that you have to do during the jump. Boarding into the airplane and it will be reach the jump altitude in 15-20 minutes. Suddenly the world revives, the wind beats in your face, the horizon expands, and you experience the freedom, because of it somebody becomes the prisoner of this sport.
