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!

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!
