Plan your visit

Jump strapped to a qualified instructor

You're harnessed to a tandem instructor for the whole jump, so no prior training is needed beyond a short brief on the day. Choose the 7,000ft tandem or the 15,000ft ultimate for a longer freefall. You'll check in at reception, wait in a spectator area with screens showing flight times, then get your training before boarding. An add-on media package gets you photos and video of your jump.

Good to know before you go:

Flying here runs on the weather, so slots move at short notice — take the reschedule, it’s part of the sport. Some of the sites and clubs listed on Days Out NI are for members and qualified pilots rather than walk-in visitors, so check what’s on offer before you set off. And check the age, weight and health limits before you book: they’re set by the aircraft, not by anyone being fussy.

Before you set off

What to bring

  • 📱A bookingAlmost everything up here runs on a slot you’ve arranged ahead — clubs included.
  • 🧥Warm layersIt’s colder up there than it is on the ground, and colder again waiting on the airfield.
  • 🗓️A flexible dayFlights move with the wind. Keep the day loose and you’ll enjoy it far more.
  • 📷A cameraThe view is the whole point — coast, lough and mountain, all in one lap.
