Enjoy the beauty of Catalonia and the emblematic mountain of Montserrat, near Barcelona, with an unforgettable hot air balloon flight from Igualada. Immerse yourself in the magic of this unique adventure and discover Montserrat from a unique perspective.
Escape from the noisy streets of Barcelona and visit the imposing Montserrat, just an hour from Barcelona. Take the opportunity to embark on an extraordinary hot air balloon experience.
The adventure begins in the early morning, when the atmosphere is most stable and the light is at its most magical. As you drift with the wind, you will soar over the Bages and Anoia regions. You might glide over the historic bridges of Manresa along the Llobregat River or admire the urban layout of Igualada surrounded by rural tapestries like the Conca de Òdena and the Calaf plateau.
Depending on weather conditions, the flight will depart from a location close to the mountain, you will float between 1,000 and 1,300 meters above sea level, and you will discover the singular silhouette of Montserrat, a symbol of Catalonia that reveals its true majesty only from the sky.
Throughout the flight, professional pilots ensure your safety while pointing out hidden farmhouses and natural landmarks. After approximately one hour in the air, the ground crew will meet you at the landing site for a traditional celebration of a toast with a savoury snack.
Are you ready to see Montserrat from a perspective few ever get to experience?
