Plan description

It will be a lucky day if you can see the sea of clouds overlooking Yamagata from a hot air balloon early in the morning! A hot air balloon is a vehicle that everyone wants to ride at least once in their life. Enjoy the excitement, fun, and extraordinary time in the sky in Yamagata with your family and friends while enjoying the scenery! Plan description It is a balloon flight experience at Mt. On a clear day, you can see Yonezawa city, the countryside, and the 2,000m-class 100 Famous Mountains (Iide Federation, Azuma Mountain Range, and Asahi Mountain Range) that surround the basin. In autumn, there are many days when the sea of clouds spreads out. A breathtaking view of the sky that you want to see at least once, a sea of clouds seen from a hot air balloon. The balloon flight experience, which connects the balloon and the ground with a rope and rises to a height of about 15 to 20m, is truly an extraordinary experience. In this plan, in addition to the "boarding only" experience, we offer a "full participation" course where you can prepare and clean up together. The full participation course is limited to the first 20 people.

"Boarding Only"

This is a typical balloon flight experience. We will guide you in the order of reception on the day. The actual balloon ride experience lasts about 5 minutes. After boarding, you are free to disperse.

"Full Participation"

In addition to the boarding experience, this is a participatory course in which you will work with the pilot to prepare the balloon and clean it up. They will work together to unfurl a large balloon weighing over 200 kg, attach carabiners, set gas, and most importantly, test the gas burner. Let's work together as a team to make this balloon a success, as it is impossible for one person to lift it alone. Before the launch, you can step inside the colorful balloons. Welcome to the photogenic world inside a balloon. The course will take approximately 1 to 2 hours in total, including a break in the middle. If the conditions are good, we will give you a second bonus flight!
