During 1 hour and 15 minutes, you will enjoy privileged views of the Las Merindades area, flying over the Burgos municipalities of Frías, Medina de Pomar, or Oña, among others. And if that weren't enough, we will also spot the Montes Obarenes and the most extensive complex of caves on the peninsula; Ojo Guareña. If visiting these areas on foot already seems impressive to you, you cannot imagine what it is like to see it from the heights. We will begin around 8:00 AM with the balloon preparations, in which you will have the opportunity to participate in its inflation. The reason for meeting so early is that the weather is more favorable at those hours, making it the ideal time to fly, and we assure you it is the most impressive. Waking up early has never been so beautiful! And as tradition dictates, we will have a cava toast with the stunning views of the Las Merindades landscape. You won't want an experience like this to end, and to finish it on a high note, we will provide you with a lunch and a commemorative diploma of the flight. Throughout the journey, we will be taking video and photographs so that you always have the memory of this hot air balloon ride present. There is no better viewpoint than our balloon!
