The Location
Your Colorado Front Range balloon adventure begins at sunrise along the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in North Boulder. This area offers a unique mixture of suburban and rural scenery with the perfect background of the Rocky Mountains to the west. The launch site is centrally located for easy access from Arvada, Aurora, Boulder, Brighton, Broomfield, Centennial, Denver, Englewood, Fort Collins, Golden, Greeley, Greenwood Village, Highlands Ranch, Lakewood, Littleton, Lonetree, Longmont, Louisville, Loveland, Parker, Thornton, Westminster and Wheatridge. This location also makes for the perfect day trip for visitors staying in the Estes Park/Rocky Mountain National Park area.
The Experience
You will watch in awe as your balloon is inflated and prepared for flight. Next you'll climb aboard with great anticipation as your pilot gives you a briefing and flight instructions. Before you know it, you lift effortlessly into the air and begin your peaceful journey.
You will take in amazing views of the Colorado Rockies as you fly from treetop level up to several thousand feet while traveling 3 to 15 miles. During your flight you will be serenaded with classical music in the background as your pilot explains the history of ballooning and points out prominent scenery. After approximately one hour of magical flight it is time to return to the loving arms of Mother Earth. Next, it's time to pack up and return to the launch site for a traditional champagne toast and breakfast. At the conclusion of your once in a lifetime balloon adventure you will be presented with a DVD pictorial of your flight and a commemorative champagne glass to cherish for years to come.
