Balloon Ride Over Kirkby Lonsdale 

champagne weekday anytime hot air balloon ride

Stunning. Magical. Epic. Unforgettable…

Imagine the breeze wafting over you as some of the country’s most glorious countryside starts to unfold before you. You’ve just imagined a hot air balloon ride over Kirkby Lonsdale. As you rise gently up over Whoop Hall, so your eyes will be immediately captivated by the path of the glistening River Lune. Watching it snake in a north-south direction, lets you know your ballooning adventure has well and truly begun.

As you begin to gain height, so the scale of the wild beauty of the Yorkshire Dales becomes apparent. With windswept peaks and patchwork of rolling hills, no two vistas are the same, and you’ll be hard pressed to draw your eyes away from the unforgettable views that continue to impress with every passing moment. But ballooning is all about 360° views and your Kirkby Lonsdale ride is not different. Let your eyes venture southward and so the storybook vistas of the Forest of Bowland sits on the horizon. If the wind pleases, you’ll drift closer and closer to this spectacular Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).

Should your flight take you towards the coast, so Arnside and Silverdale AONB comes into view, and to the north of that, you will see the stunning backdrop is that the Lake District, with its jagged peaks and shimmering lakes, it’s quite the contrast to the gentle gracefulness of Arnside & Silverdale. So if you’re looking for a champagne balloon ride that brings epic views, that you’re free to enjoy morning or evening, any day of the week, then this balloon flight from Kirkby Lonsdale is simply perfect.

Program

Having made your way to the launch site, you will meet your balloon crew and begin to feel the anticipation rising as the balloon envelope is laid out on the ground ready for inflation. This part of the experience takes about an hour.

If you'd like to help with the balloon inflation, that's great. If not, just take in the fresh Windermere air and soak up the atmosphere as the burners ignite and start to fill the balloon with hot air.

With final safety checks in order, it will be time to jump aboard the basket of your hot air balloon and ease gently off and upwards. Soon the expansive views open up and the sheer splendour of the Lake District presents itself in all its glory.

Drifting serenely over the stunning scenery near Windermere, your balloon pilot will point out the key landmarks and sights. Be sure to take way too many pictures! But most importantly, let your Lake District ballooning adventure let you feel free and relaxed like never before...

After an hour of unforgettable ballooning, your pilot will prepare the balloon for landing. As your journey is at the will of the wind, you could be landing at any number of locations! Take in the last of the big views as you make your descent.

Having experienced the excitement of a balloon landing, it will be time to disembark and enjoy a champagne toast! You will then get collected by the ground crew and returned to launch site, armed with a flight certificate and emotions you'll treasure for a lifetime.
