Hot Air Balloon Flights
... in the Western Midlands
We fly over beautiful Mid West England with its lush green countryside, historic
attractions, stately homes and castles. A hot air balloon flight over this part
of the country will allow you to experience the area's natural and man made
beauty as you drift serenely overhead.
Balloon Rides in Cheshire - From our launch sites in Chester, Nantwich and
Whitchurch a hot air balloon flight over Cheshire may take you over mountains,
sheep and sleepy little Welsh villages. Flights in Cheshire are often close to
the coast, allowing passengers to view the popular seaside resorts of Rhyll,
Llandudno and Colwyn Bay.
Depending on where the day's flight is scheduled to launch from you may catch a
glimpse of the Jodrell Bank radio telescope, the UK's biggest radio telescope
which dominates the landscape around it. Or the balloon may gently glide over
North Wales and the Snowdonia National Park.
Balloon Rides in Herefordshire - Our Herefordshire launch site is one of England's
most beautiful castles. Home to the Hervey-Bathurst family and set against the
Malvern Hillis, Eastnor Castle is surrounded by a beautiful deer park, arboretum
and lake. As the balloon gently rises and begins to drift you will see the
Malvern Hills, known as "The Backbone of Herefordshire and Worcestershire".
Rising to over 1500 feet, and stretching almost 20 miles in length, the hills
offer unparallel views and energetic climbs.
Balloon Rides in Staffordshire - Balloon flights in Staffordshire take off from
Shugborough Hall - The National Trust home of Lord Lichfield, perhaps better
known as Patrick Lichfield the photographer. From this lovely launch site the
flight may take you over the Cannock Chase Forest park with its 26 square miles
of natural woodland wilderness. As the balloon drifts on you may be awarded a
unique view of Alton Towers, the UK's premier theme park and home of world's
first vertical drop roller coaster, Oblivion.
