Flight plan

Meeting point in Uzès, Cordeliers car park, one hour before sunrise (5: 15 in summer).
We will drive you, to take-off place, adapted to the day’s winds.
After the captain’s instructions, you will take part, if you wish to do so, in preparing the hot air balloon.
Gentle take off…then, going with the wind, fly over the Garrigue, villages around Uzès or the Cèze valley.
A magical moment out of time !
The pilot lands the hot air balloon in the countryside. A vehicle will be there waiting. After storing the equipment in the trailer, the new aeronauts receive the « Celestial Ascension Certificate ».
