Description

At altitudes between 300 and 600 meters, passengers can see iconic medieval castles such as Montfalcó and Torrefeta, along with the striking silhouette of Lleida’s Seu Vella cathedral. The surrounding agricultural plain, especially vibrant in spring with flowering fruit trees, adds color and fragrance to the scenery. This region combines rich cultural heritage with natural beauty, making it ideal for year-round balloon flights.

The Experience Upon arrival at the launch site, you’ll take part in inflating the balloon, feeling the crisp morning air and hearing the roar of the burner as the massive envelope fills. The flight lasts approximately one hour, during which silence is only broken by the burner’s sound and the soft breeze brushing against the wicker basket. From above, you’ll witness the Segre River winding through fields and historic monuments, while sunlight bathes the golden and green hues of the landscape in soft light. After landing, you’ll help pack away the balloon and receive a personalized certificate and a professional photo report capturing your journey.
