Naples is the city that reflects the truest and purest authentic essence of Italian culture. This city is a unique place in the Italian peninsula and has been recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1995. The simple fact of strolling through its alleys becomes an incredible and unforgettable experience in which you can enjoy the smells and flavours that are typical of Neapolitan culture.

If you're on holiday, you will find plenty to see and do, but here's an idea to make your stay in Naples even more unique than it might be already planned to. What we do recommend is an excursion a few kilometres outside the city for a unique experience: an electrifying bungee jump. Considered an extreme sport, yet nowadays we know that it is totally safe.

When to bungee jump in Naples?

You can jump at any time of the year and in almost any weather conditions, unless it is too stormy and rainy for your safety, in which case the activity would be postponed until the next available date.

Where to go bungee jumping near Naples?

One of the most incredible places to jump is undoubtedly the Salle Bridge, located in the Majella National Park, just a few hours from the Neapolitan capital region.

This bridge is considered the highest walled bridge in Europe, suspended at a height of about 100 metres, and the area surrounding the viaduct is one of the most beautiful ones in the country. In fact, the Majella National Park is a perfect blend of Mediterranean flora and fauna surrounded by beautiful and unspoilt landscapes and, of course, perfect for bungee jumping.

What does the activity consist of?

After the expert staff explain in detail how to perform the jump and make sure the rope, elastic and harness are secured, you will fill your lungs with a deep breath of the genuine mountain air of the park and jump into the void, leaving your head free of all thoughts, and in a matter of seconds, you will reach 100 km/h. Could you fit more adrenaline in a single activity?

In the first 65 metres you will have the sensation of flying like a peregrine falcon! The jump has a total height of 80 m and, after several bounces, you will begin to feel the adrenaline flowing through your veins contrasted by a sense of peace, which will allow you to live a mixture of unforgettable emotions, until the landing.

Once the activity is over, you can enjoy taking a long walk in the Majella National Park with a hiking or cycling route along the various trails of the park. You can also reward your courage test with an excellent typically local meal. Back in Naples you'll have several options to choose from as you fill the whirlwind of emotions that jumping into the void will have created in your stomach. Between the classic and immortal Neapolitan pizza, the various fritters and all kinds of pasta, in the immortal historic centre of Naples the options are endless.

You can also give this experience as a gift to someone special to celebrate an important event and share this pure adrenaline rush together. With two people it will certainly be more fun, and the initial tension and fears will be easier to replace if you share them with a person you trust.

You have no more excuses. The Gulf of Naples has in store for you a holiday full of excitement, culture, fun and, why not, a touch of madness. Come and enjoy the perfect mix of emotions and get to know the real Italy, one that is also unique and incredibly special.
