Balloon · Road bike · Mountain bike
\n\n\n\nWhen Daniel is not standing in the balloon basket, he is often out in the mountains on his road bike or mountain bike.
\nBalloon · Powered flight · Gliding · Flight instructor
\n\n\n\nBesides ballooning, Patrick is also at home in aviation – in powered flight and gliding – and passes on his knowledge as a flight instructor.
\nWe have several launch sites around Sonthofen, Germany's southernmost town, and choose the one that suits the weather conditions best. Below you the Iller valley, ahead of you the Grünten, the “Guardian of the Allgäu”, and on the horizon the peaks around Oberstdorf.
\n\n\n\nDepending on the wind direction, the flight heads towards the Alpsee, Nesselwang or out into the Alpine foothills.
\n\n\n\n| Launch sites | Around Sonthofen – we tell you which one at the weather check the day before |
| Start times | In the morning, about 30 minutes after sunrise |
| Season | All year round, including winter |

\nBallooning would often be possible even in less than perfect weather. We still only fly in fine weather, because we want you to get the full experience. The day before, the pilot checks the weather and we let you know by email whether the flight goes ahead. If the weather is not right, we find a new date together with you, free of charge. Your booking or ticket remains valid.
\nWe meet in the morning, about 30 minutes after sunrise. We tell you the exact time and the meeting point after the weather check the day before. Allow 3–4 hours in total, of which 1½ to 2 hours are pure flight time in the air (Expedition Flight: 2 to 3).
\nYes. After purchase you receive the ticket immediately as a PDF to print or, on request, printed by post. If you like, the name of the recipient and your name appear on the ticket. A ticket has no fixed date; the recipient picks the date themselves.
\nChoose a flight and a free date in the calendar, add it to the cart and enter the ticket code at checkout. The ticket is deducted, and with a Value Ticket the remainder stays as credit. Prefer a personal touch? Write to us and we will book the date together.
\nThree years to the end of the year – a ticket bought in 2026 is valid until 31 December 2029. Choose your flight date online in the calendar or arrange it with us by e-mail.
\nComfortable, weatherproof clothing and sturdy shoes – we often land in meadows or fields. In winter we also recommend a hat and gloves.
\nYes, from the age of 8 and a height of at least 1.30 m. All guests should be able to climb into the basket unaided and stand for the whole flight.
\nAnyone who can climb into the basket without help and stand for the whole flight can come along. Unfortunately, pregnant women cannot fly. We ask about health restrictions when you book, and then talk to you beforehand. The classic fear of heights does not exist in ballooning: you float calmly, without any wind in your face.
\nYes, absolutely. Take as many photos and videos as you like. Only for the landing, we ask you to put away your camera and phone and hold on tight.
\nOur balloon carries at most 4 guests – plus the pilot. On the Panorama Flight you book per person, so other guests may come along. On the Private and Expedition Flights only your group is in the basket.
\nThe pilot needs the weight of all guests for the load calculation required by law. Only we see the weight, not the other guests, and it is deleted immediately afterwards.
\nWe are happy to answer any question about flights, tickets and dates.
