Experience the adventure of freefalling above stunning Lake Taupo! Enjoy a mind-blowing 60 seconds of freefall from 15,000 ft, taking in coast to coast views of the North Island and snowy volcanoes. Catch your breath with a beautiful parachute ride back to earth from 5,000 ft.
Journey high above the spectacular Lake Taupo region with views of snow-capped volcanoes and pristine coastline. Skydive from 15,000 feet with over an entire minute in freefall with NZ's top rated drop zone!
You are sure to be a bit nervous when you arrive at our drop zone. You are, after all, about to jump out of a plane. The friendly staff will explain everything you need to know before your skydive, and will provide you with a jumpsuit, harness, and one of our experienced tandem masters.
After getting geared up and meeting your tandem master, it’s time to board the plane. The journey begins with a scenic flight above the central plateau, taking in views of the Southern Hemisphere’s largest lake. Your excitement will climb with every new altitude. Exiting the plane at up to 15,000 feet you will experience the exhilaration of free falling at 200 kilometres per hour. Catch your breath as you enjoy a spectacular parachute ride back to earth.
From 15,000 feet you will see coast to coast views of the North Island. With the crisp, clear days and blue skies of the gorgeous central plateau, Taupo really is New Zealand’s home of skydiving.
Spectators are welcome to watch for free from the ground viewing area.
Skydiving is a weather dependent activity, you will not jump if there is rain, cloud or high winds.
Warm comfortable clothes, closed-toe shoes are highly recommended.
NZ public holidays will incur a 15% surcharge on skydives, video/photo packages will not be effected by the surcharge.
This experience takes place 10 minutes from Taupo town centre.

That’s 10% of the Australian population! When we started ‘doing’ experiences in 2001, Facebook didn’t exist; the iPod had just been invented; John Howard was Prime Minister; and Destiny's Child were popular (yikes!). We’ve been at this business of experiences for quite a while, so put your trust in us to show you a good time.
