HOT AIR BALLOONING
Hot Air Balloons in Taos offer a unique experience where you can enjoy the view of the vast and mountainous landscape, and the rugged earth and winding water ways of the Rio Grande below. When inflating, it is noisy. But, once aloft, you'll be at awe with nature as you glide in the air. You'll feel the serenity, calmness that is uncommon in our busy daily lives and so refreshing! At the same time, a hot air balloon ride can be an exhilarating experience as you float high in the air and then dip down into the Rio Grande Gorge.
Flights usually take off in the early morning, at sunrise. Dress warm. Taos ballooning companies offer balloon safety and flight lesson, including firing off the burners and flying the balloon. If you wish, you can take the lesson. But, most just enjoy letting the pilot have the control and are there just for the ride.
Owner info
Year Purchased: 2008
About the owner: Kent and I are from Texas and we love to go to Taos and be away from the humid weather for a few days. We are also in awe with the New Mexico landscape. After a few trips to Taos, we decided to buy a home here. As one of the Taos locals told us, 'The mountain is calling and we responded heartily.
Why the Owner Chose El Prado, NM, USA:
If you like nature, you will love Taos.
Taos county boasts wide open spaces, stretching over 50 square miles. The average number of sunny days is 300/365. It has a mixture of diverse cultures that includes that of Native Americans, Spanish and Anglo.
Taos offers all kinds of outdoor activities all year round. The options are endless: e.g., skiing, snow boarding, snow shoeing, rafting, kayaking, hiking, golfing, horseback riding, biking, hot air ballooning. Even if you are not as much of an outdoor sport enthusiast as you would like to be (i.e., like some of us), you'd still enjoy sitting back on the porch and soaking in the beautiful weather, pristine setting, and majestic mountain views.
Personally, I feel blessed whenever I am there.
