There are many different landing sites available to us although we enjoy the fact that we don\u2019t know it until the last minute. The pilot has to decide at every moment the height that he wants to fly at to find different air draughts and airflows that will carry the balloon in one direction or another. <strong>Every day is a new experience and every flight is different<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>We normally get up to 8,000\/10,000 feet above the sea level, which in our region means <strong>1500 meters above land level<\/strong>. Up there, we can see beneath our feet the most amazing views of our valley in a very peaceful and tranquil environment.<\/p>\n<p>After a one-hour flight, the pilot starts to look for a good place to land. The whole of the journey takes approximately between one and one and a half hours, after that, the <strong>adventure<\/strong> comes to and end on this occasion.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.globospi.com\/wp_pruebas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/globospi.com-elvolenglobus2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-510 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.globospi.com\/wp_pruebas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/globospi.com-elvolenglobus2.jpg\" alt=\"globospi.com-elvolenglobus2\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.globospi.com\/wp_pruebas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/globospi.com-elvolenglobus2.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.globospi.com\/wp_pruebas\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/globospi.com-elvolenglobus2-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Landing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since take off, a <strong>4X4<\/strong> Jeep always has the balloon in its sights.
