Skydiving Cáceres 4 prices and offers 2025

Do you have any idea how high a condor can soar? It can reach a height of 4,000 meters. Although you are not a condor, you can still experience the same thrill that this Andean bird feels when it reaches such a height by base jumping with a parachute. Not everyone's body is up for the challenge. Are you sure your body is ready for such an adventure? You must try it if you like strong emotions and enjoy the feeling of danger rushing down your neck.

Where to go skydiving in Caceres?

Although there is no parachute jumping opportunities in the province per se, you can leap from a plane in Cáceres. In the district of Castelo Branco in the Portuguese municipality of Proença-a-Nova, this activity can be attempted. This lovely town is one of the few sites on the Iberian Peninsula with a facility that offers skydiving so that you can leap into the void and have an experience like none other.

To give you a picture of what you are signing up for, we'll inform you what it entails, the parameters you must meet to take the leap, such as your minimum age, weight, and height and some aspects of the setting where the activity is conducted.

Once you've opted to take the plunge, the skydiving centre where you'll jump will give you instructions (which will last about 15 minutes) explaining how the activity will be carried out and what equipment you will need.

Following this quick briefing, you will proceed directly to the plane, where you will remain for around 20 minutes to reach a height of 4,000 meters. This is the height at which you will hit 220 km/h if you fall for 50 to 60 seconds in free fall. Don't be concerned about the technicalities like the timing and the opening of the parachute because the instructor will handle everything.

You will fly for 8 minutes over the Proença-a-Nova area and witness stunning vistas. You will see Europe's largest population of Scots pines, crystal clear rivers and colossal rural valleys.

What is necessary to skydive?

Even though the instructor will take care of everything, skydiving organizations have a set of standards that you must complete to do the jump:

• You must not have a heart condition.
• Your minimum weight must be 30 kilos and not exceed 90 kg.
• Your maximum height may not exceed 2 metres.
• If you have any special physical condition, you must inform the team to take it into account in order to maintain your safety.
• If you are a minor, the minimum age required is 16 years old, and written parental consent is essential.

Extremadurans and Portuguese people have a special bond, and it is not uncommon for them to travel to the neighbouring nation regularly, thus getting from the province of Cáceres to Portugal for a parachute jump won't be difficult. Take advantage of the rush of adrenaline. Take the plunge and feel the earth's pull at its strongest. All you have to do now is take the leap, literally, and the rest will take care of itself. Everything will be captured in a video or photograph format, depending on your preference.
