The pilots are professionals authorized by aeronautical bodies to carry out balloon flights, ready to share the necessary instructions for the flight. After a brief introduction, a welcome coffee and completing the pre-tour paperwork…it's time to fly! We offer 3 routes for balloon flights in La Rioja:
Route 1: Cuzcurrita - Pancorbo
The journey begins at the magnificent take-off field and you can soon see the region's famous vineyards. From there, the ride continues towards the town of Pancorbo, in Burgos, where you can not only see a spectacular gorge, but also sail alongside the Sierra de Obarenes, with its immense fields of cereals, sunflowers and abundant wildlife.
Route 2: Miranda - Cuzcurrita
The flight begins in Miranda de Ebro, by the river. On this route you'll cross the Sierra de los Obarenes from north to south and, when you reach La Rioja, you'll see a "mantle" of spectacular vineyards.
Route 3: Santo Domingo de la Calzada - Cuzcurrita
On this route you'll take off in the southern part of the city, and you'll be able to fly over the Cathedral Tower of Santo Domingo de La Calzada, a city that forms part of the Camino de Santiago. It will be possible flying over a multicolored blanket of fields from different cultures with the winding Oja River that gives its name to this beautiful land.
At the end you can enjoy a delicious lunch typical of the Rioja region, where you can share the sensations you experienced during the flight.
