Silkeborg

Whenever possible, we start our balloon flights from the city of Silkeborg. It’s always spectacular to begin the flight between Silkeborg’s buildings, and before you know it, you’re soaring high above the ground with distant views. It’s not unusual to see cranes and buildings from the harbor in Aarhus, and on particularly good days we can also catch a glimpse of the sunset over Ringkøbing Fjord. These are just a few examples of what awaits you when you start ballooning in Silkeborg or the surrounding area. Of course, what you get to experience depends on the season, the wind, the weather and the time of day.

Whether the flight goes north towards Kjellerup and past Tange Sø or Hinge Sø (we’ve interrupted Den Store Bagedyst once – sorry DR) or south over lakes and forest, perhaps landing in Gl. Rye or even all the way up to the top of Yding Skovhøj south of the large Mossø, you can be sure of a very special nature experience. Ballooning in Jutland, especially around Silkeborg, is a unique experience that you will remember for a lifetime. When DreamBalloon organizes the trip, you can be sure that there are skilled and experienced pilots and crew behind the event, so you as a passenger can relax and enjoy the ride and the view!

We can never determine a take-off location before the day of the flight, as we need to know the wind directions in order to plan the flight. In the area around Silkeborg, we try to start from the city if possible, but sometimes the weather can make it impossible to fly close to the many lakes and forests. In such cases, we have to start outside the city, in Ry or possibly from Gern or Sorring.

Please note that we always strive to fly in the desired area. If on the day of the flight this is not possible, but we can operate the flight in another nearby area, we will fly from there instead. This way we ensure that you get your flight on the desired day instead of a cancellation.
