Here's an interesting tip before we go on: although we fly year-round, we recommend spring and autumn for vibrant colors and the most stable weather conditions.
That said, if you're looking for fun activities in the Aragonese Pyrenees during summer or winter, you can count on us. The same goes if you're interested in a private hot air balloon flight for 2 people.
Your enjoyment and safety begin with proper preparation. Punctuality is key, since we'll take advantage of the calm morning air. We also recommend wearing comfortable, layered clothing and long pants.
Closed, athletic footwear is mandatory due to the uneven terrain. To protect yourself from the heat of the burner, don't forget a hat or cap.
In addition, we operate under strict EASA/AESA regulations and fly only under favorable weather conditions (wind speeds under 20 km/h).
Also, remember: the pilot is the highest authority during the flight. This means that to ensure a perfect experience, you must follow their instructions and adopt the correct landing position when told.
By the way, if you're planning a romantic balloon flight, this stability is ideal. We can also help you enjoy the level of intimacy you desire to make the moment truly special and unforgettable.
As we climb up to 2,500 meters, there's a lot to admire. You'll be able to see the majestic mountain range in its entirety, including the spectacular Montsec d'Ares and Montsec de Rúbies.
This angle offers a privileged perspective. You'll see the stark contrast between the intense turquoise of the Canelles reservoir and the mosaic of fields in the Àger Valley.
This exciting aerial adventure also gives you the chance to discover hidden gems such as the PAM (Parc Astronòmic del Montsec) dome, medieval towers like Sant Llorenç Castle, and ancient hermitages—all invisible from the road.
And to top it all off, you'll be amazed by the spectacular view of the Aragonese Pyrenees on the horizon, with the snow-capped peaks of Aneto marking the end of the landscape.
If you want your first hot air balloon flight over Montsec and the Congost de Mont-Rebei to be memorable, safety comes first. That's why you should only fly with certified pilots (EASA/AESA)—like ours, of course.
Also, make sure the company has a strict cancellation and rescheduling policy due to bad weather. If conditions fall outside the minimum operating limits, we do not fly.
Wear long pants, comfortable layered clothing, and closed athletic shoes. And don't forget to be on time. Flights take place at dawn, to make the most of the calm air at that hour.
Lastly, don't worry about vertigo—the basket is very stable as it floats with the wind.
The best seasons for a balloon flight over Montsec and the Congost de Mont-Rebei are autumn and spring. These months provide moderate temperatures, the most stable air of the year, and gentle winds (between 6 and 15 km/h).
Autumn offers stunning scenery, with valleys painted in red and ochre hues, while spring charms you with lush green landscapes everywhere.
That said, winter brings clear, cloudless skies—perfect for spotting the snowy peaks of the Aragonese Pyrenees. And while summer requires an earlier start, it rewards you with a golden landscape.
In other words, each season has its own charm, and we fly safely year-round. You decide how and when to enjoy the breathtaking views of the Congost.
Oh! And you also have the option to fly with family or friends, since we offer balloon flights for up to 4 people.
