Balloons Over Southern Utah

Hot Air Balloon Rides Over Southern Utah

Balloons Over Southern Utah offers the ultimate aerial experience — floating gently over the stunning red rock canyons, mesas, and desert landscapes of Southern Utah in a hot air balloon. Based in the St. George area, the company provides unforgettable sunrise balloon rides that showcase the incredible beauty of Washington County from a perspective few people ever see.

The Balloon Experience

Flights typically launch at sunrise when conditions are calmest and the light paints the red rocks in spectacular golden and amber tones. Each flight lasts approximately 45-60 minutes, carrying passengers over the desert terrain with panoramic views of Snow Canyon, the Pine Valley Mountains, and the surrounding red rock formations. The experienced FAA-certified pilots provide narration about the landscape and geology during the flight. After landing, passengers celebrate with a traditional champagne toast — a beloved hot air ballooning tradition.

Book Your Flight

Hot air balloon rides are available year-round in Southern Utah, though spring and fall offer the most comfortable temperatures and best flying conditions. Flights accommodate small groups, making them perfect for romantic proposals, anniversary celebrations, birthday surprises, or bucket list adventures. Reservations are required and should be made in advance, especially during peak tourist season. This is one of the most unusual and unforgettable things to do in St. George. Combine your balloon ride with other Southern Utah adventures for the ultimate vacation experience.
