Select an early morning or evening flight when you book. Your confirmed start time is given after you book.
Head to Llanarth’s village hall on the day of your balloon flight, and meet the pilot and crew. If the weather is good, and you want to get involved, help the crew to set up your 16-man hot air balloon. After a safety talk from your pilot, step inside the basket, then float up and away. A glass of Champagne is provided.
The Brecon Beacons is stunning from the ground, but its sweep of green hills is best appreciated from above. Drift over the Usk Valley, admiring a patchwork landscape of fields, broken up by little villages. The route doesn’t go as far as the Wye Valley, but on a clear day, you should get a good view from your vantage point in the sky.
Touch down and step back on to land and hop in a waiting vehicle, and travel back to the start point. Receive a flight certificate to take home as a souvenir, and then bid your pilot and crew goodbye.
Please note: Weather is unpredictable, so cancellations or rearrangements may occur. Practical clothes, suitable for the great Welsh outdoors, are recommended. A hat is also advised to protect your head from the heat of the balloon burners.
