BALLOON FLIGHT INFORMATION
Take to the morning skies over the glorious Herefordshire countryside on a hot air balloon flight over Leominster. As you ascend, so the views will open up. Berrington Hall is revealed in all its glory, as are the surrounding patchwork fields, which finally surrender to captivating vistas of the brooding Brecon Beacons across the border in Wales.
As the wind guides you over the county, there’s always something to catch your eye – Leominster’s electric and historic architecture, the winding River Wye, the black and white houses that dot the region in quaint villages and busting market towns. We think Leominster is one of the best places in the whole of the UK to go ballooning – so get yourself lost on the breeze and an unforgettable ballooning experience!
If you’re heading to Leominster (pronounced Lemster due to historic spelling connotations) for your ballooning adventure, be sure to take some time to explore this wonderful part of the world. Known as the Town in the Marches, the handsome architecture that ranges from medieval to Georgian and now houses a range of shops, eateries and antiques.
In the heart of the town, you can wander the Priory of St. Peter and St. Paul, which has been part of the local community for over 1300 years. Housing Herefordshire carvings, a Norman nave and the town’s infamous ducking stool, it’s worth a visit!

Your unforgettable balloon ride will start with a full safety briefing, after which you you can help the team with the the inflating of the balloon if you wish – or kick back, soak up the atmosphere and let others do the hard work.

As you drift gently over the Herefordshire countryside near Leominster, there will be ample opportunity to take photographs from this unique vantage point. During your flight you are free to discuss how the balloon works with the pilot, who will also be pointing out the many points of interest that drift below you or rest gently on the horizon.
No two flights are the same, and as such any number of towns, villages and important landmarks could come into view – all of which create talking points for years to come.
After an unforgettable hour ballooning your pilot will begin your decent towards a gentle landing. Once back on the ground, and should you wish, you can help in packing away the envelope (that’s the official name for the fabric canopy).
With the balloon all packed away, you will be transferred back to your launch site where you can sip on the fine stuff and raise a toast to an unforgettable adventure hot air ballooning over Herefordshire.
