The Festive And Colorful Ballooning Festival

By Alta Alexander


If you are looking for a ballooning adventure, Winter Park, CO is a must visit place. Colorado is known for its balloon festivals and events and there are so many tourists coming here annually. They all want to see the colorful splash of a number of balloons across the skies.

Balloon operators have a club in Colorado which they established for approximately forty years now. Colorado ballooning can give you an experience of a lifetime which you might want to try over and over again. It is a very entertaining feast of balloon rides. Anyone can take the ride, of course, with the assistance of the operators. You can have a nice breakfast, a glass of champagne, and beautiful music in the background with the fresh sun peeking at you in an early morning atmosphere.

In time with the sunrise, it is perfect to fly on it. This is so because if the weather is perfect, the winds are most stable during that time of the day. This could mean also that it will be really cold so you need to wear your jacket or sweater. But once that peeping sun finally comes out, it will start to warm up.

The balloon festival is really exciting. A colorful display takes flight on the skies of the city. It is an exciting event where you can take the kids along to marvel on the colorful skies. There are also other events in this festival. If flying is not your thing, you may take other alternative activities that are also fun and exciting.

This is the event where you can bring the entire family with you especially the kids, that is, if they can wake up early. It is not necessary to take the ride if you are not up to it and if the kids are scared. You can simply stay on the ground and look at those beautiful colors. There are also a lot of other booths and activities where you can take your children to. Not to mention all the souvenirs and toys you can buy.

However, it could be a lot more exciting if you take the challenge and ride it even for just an hour or two. There are even more beautiful subjects up there to take snapshots of. The flight will last for one to three hours and there are corresponding payments for how long you prefer to be up there.

At first, it may be too scary but as the balloon goes up several hundred feet high, you will forget about the fear when you are welcomed by the scenic view. This ride is as relaxing as it can get and it makes people recount the old times when this was used as a transportation by people.

Winter Park is famous for this event and many people come here all year round, even if it is not the time of the festival. You can always take the ride but you need to come really early in the morning, before the sun comes up because that is recommended by the operators. They are experienced and very skilled in flying it so they will know when is the perfect time.

Once they think the winds are really stable, they can even elevate the balloon several feet up where you can enjoy a more breath taking view. When you look down, you will be given a birds eye view of almost the entire city. This is great since you can also photograph really nice panorama and landscape.
