Hot Air Balloons

 

For a truly unique view of Okanogan Country, treat yourself to a hot air balloon adventure!

Imagine yourself peacefully drifting over the treetops as the valley calmly drifts by. You'll slowly gain altitude and the spectacular panoramas of Okanogan Country's mountains appear. A view reserved only for hawks and eagles!

Balloons fly year 'round in Okanogan Country. Morning flights are the norm. If you truly want to become a "balloonatic", be sure to see Winthrop's annual Balloonfest. Fifteen to twenty of these colorful aircraft all gather to fly from Winthrop the first weekend in March. A "must see" event for anyone with a camera.

Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or look down on the mountains and valleys like you never have before, hot air ballooning in Okanogan Country is just for you! Hot Air Balloons over the North Cascades

QUICK FACTS


Morning Glory Balloon Tours
A champange picnic completes the end of every flight, a tradition dating back to the first balloon flight in 1783.

All hot air balloons and their pilots are licenced through the FAA.

Since a hot air balloon drifts with the wind, you never feel a breeze.

Hot air balloons fly year-round in the Methow Valley of Okanogan Country. The next time you're in our area, make sure to take a ride!
