Hot
Air Balloons -
a unique way to explore the beautiful scenery
of Oregon. One can sail quietly over the farms,
orchards and wineries of the Willamette Valley
or view the scenery of Portland. Hot
air ballooning is one of the most unique and popular
attractions in Oregon.
As
you rise into the sky for a sunrise adventure,
you will enjoy the silence of gently floating
over Oregon while looking down on trees, beaches,
farmland and vineyards. Hot air balloons float
almost silently above the landscape - you'll see
Oregon in a way that pedestrian travelers never
do!
Your
flight adventure begins thirty minutes before
dawn as the sunrise awakens the vineyards of Lake
Oswego's premier winery. While preparing the balloon
for flight, your pilot and crew will invite you
to become involved with the inflation process.
Be more than just a passenger. Your "hands on"
experience will make you feel like a full-fledged
balloonist.
Imagine
floating over Yamhill County's beautiful wine
country in one of the greatest adventures of a
lifetime. Your hot air balloon adventure happens
just 40 minutes South of downtown Portland in
a safe, supportive and very fun environment. Different
flight packages are available.
The
skies over Tigard are filled with rainbow-colored
hot air balloons at this annual Allstate Festival
of Balloons. Thousands of visitors come to watch
the balloons take off, ride the ferris wheel at
the carnival, munch on festival food, and enjoy
the live music. The novelty and joy of seeing
hot air balloons up close is a thrill for children
and is another aspect of Tigard that makes it
a unique and wonderful place to call home.
