Hot Air Ballooning is a sport with a heritage. From mans first flight in 1783 until the present day, the fascination of drifting with the breeze has captured the hearts and minds of people around the world. Now anyone can enjoy the unique and unforgettable experience of a hot air balloon flight, with Airtopia Ballooning.

Although most flights are made during the summer, crisp winter days can also offer some of the best flying, making ballooning a year round activity. Balloons require stable weather conditions to fly and in particular calm winds and good visibility. Therefore, balloon flights are generally made in the early mornings and evenings when the winds tend to be lighter and during the summer months flights are made at dawn and dusk.

No specialised clothing is required and casual outdoor wear made from natural fibres with flat shoes is ideal. Temperatures in the air are similar to those on the ground, but those who are tall or thin on top may appreciate a hat to avoid the heat from the burner.
