Hot Air Balloon Flights

There is no better way to view the spectacular scenery of the majestic Rocky Mountains than from a hot air balloon. Our flights of fantasy are scheduled every morning at sunrise and take you over the lovely, rugged landscape of the Aspen/Snowmass area. Our distinctive balloons will carry you aloft for approximately one hour to a gentle landing downwind, offering breathtaking vistas of the mountain ranges around you and the flora and fauna below.

During the course of your flight, we will give you the pleasure of flying high, in order to fully appreciate the magnitude of the mountains, as well as low to see what it's like to fly close to the trees and animals. Our celebration of this adventure-of-a-lifetime begins anew upon landing as we toast our passengers with the 200-year-old tradition of serving champagne; re-tell the story of the first balloon flight in 1783; and recite the prayer to celebrate a successful flight.

Please feel free to bring a camera and lots of film! For those of you with a video camera, bring an extra battery.

Launch Sites: We schedule flights daily from the rodeo grounds in Snowmass Village. As we fly with the breezes, a launch site change due to unfavorable wind direction is at our discretion.

What to Wear: Comfortable slacks and flat shoes and a warm jacket are recommended. Mornings can be brisk, but once in the air, we will feel no wind, and the 15 million BTU burners reflect enough heat to keep us warm.

Reservations: Although we can accommodate large groups of passengers with our fleet of matching balloons, we recommend making reservations as far in advance as possible to ensure availability. Reservations are guaranteed with a credit card number. Cancellations must be made 48 hours prior to flight time.

TRANSPORTATION: We provide complimentary transportation to and from local hotels.
