Area of Altenstadt / Schongau

Altenstadt is located about 95 km south west from Munich (travel time by car approximately 1 hour) and the jump site is located on a military airfield. With good weather one has a wonderful view of the Bavarian Alps and surroundings. From mid-April to the end of October you can watch the civilian hobby jumpers on Fridays and Saturdays at the jump site. Military jump operations take place during the week. The jumps are conducted using various aircraft, including a Pilatus Porter PC-6, Cessna 206, Cessna 208 and sometimes a Shorts SC.7 Skyvan. At the jump location there are basic toilet facilities, however no catering is available.
Altenstadt is certainly one of the most beautiful jumping places in Germany. However, due to refurbishment work of the runway and the availability of aircraft we rarely have the opportunity to jump here.
