As the ground falls beneath the basket, passengers' eyes are drawn to the horizon, where they are suddenly greeted with sweeping views of the Colorado scenery. Denver hot Air Ballooning's morning flights buoy guests 1,000 to 3,000 feet into the air, providing them with a new perspective normally reserved for soaring birds and migrating magic carpets. Natural air currents gently guide the balloon over verdant expanses of trees and fields for about 45 to 60 minutes, before the pilot begins lowering the group back down to the waiting ground. And while the flights can make any ordinary day feel special, Denver Hot Air Ballooning is also available for extra-special events such as birthdays or marriage proposals.
