Details
Admire the Val Pusteria from above while enjoying a breathtaking and unique private balloon ride. An unforgettable memory to take home after a pleasant holiday in South Tyrol. The flight, perfect for adults and children (from a body height of 130 cm) allows you to take as many photos as you want and still gives you time to admire the mountains and the surrounding green landscapes.
Take-off area
The take-off area is in general between Brunico and Dobbiaco and depends on the wind direction. Usually, we are able to communicate with certainty the meeting point and/or takeoff area 3-4 days before the flight.
The panorama that can be admired from this flight is the Val Pusteria from a minimum height of 2000 m a.s.l. Even the peaks of the surrounding mountains can be observed very well.
Ride programme- Before take-off:
When you get to the meeting point, we'll take you to the takeoff area. For an even more complete experience, we will invite you to help us prepare the balloon. The process is very interesting and fascinating and will allow you to better understand how hot air balloons work.
- During the ride:
Once you've taken off, you can see the mountains from above, enjoy the panoramic flight and ask the pilot questions about the local geography. The pilot will be happy to explain what you are seeing from above. After about 50-60 minutes of flight, you will proceed to the landing.
- After landing:
As soon as you land, you'll find the ground crew waiting for you. Together with the pilot, you can toast with a glass of prosecco and a selection of sausages and typical products. If it is too cold to enjoy the "baptism" of the first flight, we will invite you to a bar for breakfast. After this fun ceremony, the ground team will take you back to the meeting point.

Robert and Lukas were very trustworthy, well organized and super nice! We had an unforgettable experience watching the sunrise over the Dolomites and at the same time we learned a lot about ballooning!

A great experience with a competent driver! Both the assembly and disassembly, as well as the flight between the snow-covered mountain peaks of the Pustertal, were a special experience for our whole family.
Our balloon pilot Robert explained and informed us about many details and interesting facts.
The fun conclusion was a balloon pilot baptism. We were all thrilled, young and old alike, and can only recommend this experience.
