Description
Description
Join us for a hot air balloon adventure above the Ribeira Sacra, where you will experience one of the most stunning sceneries in Galicia's interior. This excursion offers unparalleled views of a renowned wine-growing area.
Itinerary
We will convene at the designated launch site, prepared for an extraordinary journey within the Ribeira Sacra territory.
As the balloon fills with air, observe its vibrant hues come to life. Once we are all aboard the basket, we will ascend into the sky! In no time, the captivating landscapes of Ribeira Sacra will unfold beneath us.
From this vantage point, we will admire magnificent oak and chestnut forests, alongside the renowned vineyards arranged in striking terraces. Furthermore, the breathtaking junction of the Miño and Sil rivers will provide a unique panorama that is sure to leave you in awe!
After approximately an hour of smooth sailing through Galicia's heart as dawn ascends into the sky, we will begin our descent. And since soaring high can stimulate appetites, we will conclude this remarkable journey with a delightful breakfast featuring cava or juice, complemented by a selection of cheeses and Iberian cured meats. A fitting finale to an extraordinary morning!
To commemorate your experience, each participant will be presented with a certificate marking the hot air balloon ride over the Ribeira Sacra.
Our activity will conclude approximately three hours later at the landing site.
