Full description
Experience the thrill of a hot-air balloon flight over the snow-covered Dolomites! Departing from Bruneck/Brunico, you will fly for more than 3 hours over snow-capped peaks and mountain landscapes, reaching altitudes of over 3,000 metres.
From the hot-air balloon you will be able to admire the iconic Tre Cime di Lavaredo and the entire Dolomite chain, enjoying a unique and privileged view. Every moment will be memorable, with views that will make you feel free as never before.
Flying towards the sea, depending on the winds you will be able to land at different points such as Venice, Treviso or Verona. But the adventure doesn't end here: once on the ground, you will enjoy a delicious lunch in a typical restaurant, to celebrate the feat you have just accomplished!
What we will do
The take-off point, usually between Bruneck and Toblach, will be chosen by the pilot according to the wind conditions to ensure the best possible flight. We will receive the exact address a few days before departure.
When we arrive at the take-off site, we will be able to participate in the assembly of the balloon together with the crew, an exciting moment that will allow us to discover first-hand how the balloon works and prepare for take-off.
We will fly over the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, flying over spectacular peaks such as the Tre Cime di Lavaredo, the Marmolada and the Sassolungo. For over 3 hours we will be guided towards the sea, landing near Venice, Treviso or Verona, depending on the winds.
Once landed, we will enjoy lunch together in a typical restaurant (included) to celebrate the emotions shared during the flight. After lunch, the ground crew will take us back to the initial meeting point, thus ending a day to remember.
Given the duration of the flight and the distance covered, we recommend reserving thewhole day to make the most of this experience.
