Fly Away Ballooning is a family-run business that’s been navigating the West Country skies for three generations - Devon is the perfect place to escape into nature. It’s a landscape made for ballooning, with rolling farmland, national parks, and a patchwork of fields, wooded hills, and winding rivers that capture the very best of the county.
Ballooning is both exhilarating and zen. One moment you’re ducking under billowing fabric, the basket swaying as the burners roar overhead, your heart racing with the sheer madness of what you are about to do.
The next—total silence. The roar fades. The ground drifts away. You’re floating.
No engine. No turbulence. Just the stillness of drifting with the breeze, skimming treetops, waving at tiny people and watching the world from above.
After 45–60 minutes comes the gentle bump of landing in a field you’ll likely never find again.
Exciting, peaceful, unforgettable.
