A balloon flight over the Natural Park of the Volcanic Area is an unforgettable and amazing experience. It’s one of the most interesting dormant volcanic areas of Europe .
Discovering the volcanoes at bird’s eyes view up to 1000 meter high!
Floating in the air, travel in silence along the invisible pathways of the wind, to the sounds of nature. On clear days you will see the Mediterranean sea and the Montserrat mountain range, followed by the Catalan Pyrenees as a backround.
The day starts at the PaddleinSpain Centre Group – located in the beautiful village of Santa Pau (Olot – Girona) – This place is located only one hour and 20 minutes drive distance from Barcelona City.

The flight usually lasts between 1 hour and 1 hour 30 minutes, during the trip cava toast and crackling local pancake is served. It’s time to take photos with a panoramic view of 360 º around you.
- The landing marks the end of our flight. The “chase crew” comes to collect the balloon and the passengers. Then we all come back to our facilities, unique and exclusive for the passengers, and we celebrate the balloon adventure with a brunch consisting of roasted sausage and beans from Santa Pau, and bread with tomato spread on top served with an assortment of cured sausages, wine and a glass of Ratafia, a typical liquor from la Garrotxa.
