Hot Air Balloon Rides in the Spectacular Sierra Nevada Foothills – One of the Best Places to Fly. Just 30 Minutes from Sacramento! Flights from $215 per person.
Hot Air Balloon Adventures
Launching the balloon from the banks of the Cosumnes River is a spectacular experience and a true ballooning adventure. Unlike many other popular ballooning locations, we will be flying over rivers, lakes, creeks, tall trees, and stunning scenery. In the early-morning hours, it is not unusual to see a variety of both ground and airborne wildlife. With stunning views of the Deer Creek Hills Preserve and thousands of acres of protected oak forests, vernal pools, and wildlife, this location is one of Northern California’s best secrets. With limited vehicular access to these areas, flying a balloon over them provides a rare view of some spectacular places! We also fly a variety of other sites throughout Northern California and the Sierra Nevada’s. Come out and experience one of Northern California’s most spectacular hot-air balloon ride locations!
COVID - Safety Notice - Our clients safety comes first!
Due to Sacramento County moving to purple status all flights must be with people from the same bubble. We require at least four people to book a shared basket to fly. Two and three passenger flights are still available however, they must be booked as private charters. Our pilots and hostess wear silicone sealed masks at all times, and of course all vehicles and equipment are kept clean and lots of hand sanitizer is available. Hot air balloons are federally regulated aircraft and we have taken the same steps as would an airline to protect our passengers.
