Wyoming Balloon Company


Wyoming Balloon Company is located in Jackson, Wyoming. The company takes hot air balloons out each day over Jackson and nearby Grand Teton National Park. From the balloon it is possible to see Bridger- Teton National Forest and Snake River. The Teton Mountain Range is 5,000 feet above the launch site, which allows visitors to see some great views of the ski area and mountain resorts. Even the Yellowstone Plateau is visible from the hot air balloon. The flight is roughly an hour.

The balloon launches at daybreak when the sun begins to rise and the sky is pink in color. It is the calmest time of day for the wind, and wildlife can also be seen from the balloon better at that time of day. Wyoming Balloon Company picks up passengers at 6am returning them between 9 and 9:30am. The weather conditions will decide on whether the balloon flies or not. It also determines how high you will fly. Sometimes you will be at 4,000 feet and other times just a small distance from the ground. Children are allowed on the balloons as long as they are 6 years of age. The child rate ends at 12 years.
