Hot air Ballooning is the only adventure giving you a tranquil and majestic flight which no other aircraft can offer.
Downhill Travel offers you the possibility to fly in the Milan province and our launch sites are located just 30 minutes from the city of Milan. We also fly near the Lake of Como and over the Alps from Switzerland when the weather conditions are perfect. Get ready for an early start! Ballooning is best done at sunrise, as this is the calmest and most beautiful time of day. In autumn and winter we fly all day. Actual flight time is approximately one hour ,but please allow at least 3 hours for the whole experience
Logbook flying for pilots
The landscape here in northern Italy is perfect for flying and we fly all the year. Actually there is very little wind, nice weather and a lot of landing possibilities. During clear days we can see the Alps and the Appenines. The crops are rice and corn and there are also a lot of green fields,the farmers are very nice and they don't fence the properties.
You can fly our balloon and use our retriever. We've got a 105 and a 90 balloon, and they are in perfect conditions. If you want, you can fly even morning and evening.
We suggest a FULL day with us. A nice ride in our hot air balloon,visit in a vineyard with winetasting and snack's pluss a dinner in the castle nearby before you return to Milan after a fantastic day.
PRICES FOR AIR BALLON RIDE: 240 EURO PR.PERSON (4 people in each balloon)
