Physical Requirements

A balloon flight is not physically demanding and is suitable for most participants. Please inform us in advance if you have any health concerns or if you are pregnant.

Weather & Safety

Hot air balloon flights are weather dependent. The balloon moves with the wind in both direction and speed. The pilot is fully responsible for flight safety and makes decisions based on professional weather forecasts. If conditions are unsuitable, your flight will be rescheduled for a new date.

Duration of the Experience

The balloon flight lasts approximately one hour. Please allow at least three hours for the full experience, including preparation, flight, landing, and return transport.

Meeting Point & Location

You will meet the balloon crew at the agreed time and location. The balloon is prepared either directly at the meeting point or after a short transfer to a suitable launch site. After landing, balloon packing, and the traditional baptism ceremony, you will be transported back to the original meeting point.

Clothing & Equipment

The temperature in the balloon basket is similar to the ground temperature. We recommend comfortable outdoor clothing, appropriate for the season, and sturdy footwear. High heels are best reserved for celebrating after the flight.

Ballooning Season & Best Time to Fly

Hot air ballooning in Spiš is available year-round. During warmer months, flights usually take place early in the morning before thermal air currents develop. Evening flights are rare on hot days. On cooler days, daytime flights are also possible. The most spectacular experience is an early morning sunrise balloon flight, offering exceptional light and views.
