The Epic Experience

Interlaken is known as the adventure capital of Europe, a perfect place for those with the middle names "Adrenaline" and "Danger". There's only one way we wanted to spend our time here: full of adventure and adrenaline!

When our dreams of canyoning fell through due to trential rain, we were forced to find another alternative. The Ultimate white water rafting experience down the Lutschine River was our ONLY option for the day. Instead of an adrenaline rush we found ourselves in a hypothermic state. Yes, the water was 6 degrees Celcius , but that didn't stop us from saving the lives of 4 men who fell to the wrath of the river when their raft capsized.









The next morning we arose from our slumber with a yearning deep in our souls for a true adrenaline rush. In the words of T.S. Elliot, "only those who will risk going too far can possibily find out how far one can go." At 11:45 AM we made a snap decision to go canyon jumping at noon that day.

From 300 feet you jump, you free fall, and then you swing at high speed through the narrow glacial canyon. Scary but awesome!



















Here is a video of some rando doing the same jump in Interlaken!
