A hot air balloon flight over Osona lets you discover from the air one of the widest, brightest plains in Catalonia. With Vic as its capital, the county stretches between the Pyrenees and the Guilleries mountains.
Long, panoramic flights over fields, farmhouses and rivers lit by the morning sun, with EASA-certified pilots and over 20 years of experience.
Why Osona is an ideal area for ballooning
The Plain of Vic is a wide open landscape ringed by mountains: the Montseny massif and the Guilleries to the south-east, and the Pyrenees on the northern horizon. This openness, with often stable early-morning weather, makes it perfect for long, calm flights.
What you will see from the balloon
Below you appears the mosaic of farmland, the meanders of the Ter river, the bell towers of Vic and rural villages among the woods. Little by little, the green of the Guilleries and the silhouette of Montseny come into view, and on a clear day the Pyrenean peaks close the horizon.
What the experience is like
The adventure begins at dawn, when the air is calmest: you watch the balloon being prepared and lift off gently to between 500 and 1,500 metres. The flight lasts about one hour and, on landing, we celebrate with a cava toast and a flight certificate.
