Countryside Balloon Flights
For Hot Air Balloon flights over the spectacular countryside the Dragon Balloon Company provides a choice of launchsites from Bakewell, Derbyshire in the heart of the Peak District and Ambergate, Derbyshire, south of Matlock, in the Derbyshire Dales.
City Balloon Flights
Alternatively if you wish to experience city life from a different perspective we organise rides from our two city-centre launchsites: Endcliffe Park, Sheffield, Yorkshire and Victoria Embankment, Nottingham.
Where to Fly?
Can't decide where to fly from? Other launchsites may be used by special arrangement for bookings by a single party group. Please contact us for further details.
We cannot guarantee where the balloon will fly or land as this depends upon the direction and strength of the wind at the time of flight. However this is all part of the adventure!
