Enjoy a calm, vertical hot air balloon ascent over Pavel Banya — around 10 minutes of 360° views towards the Balkan Mountains and the Rose Valley. The balloon rises and lands on the same prepared field, offering a stable, predictable experience without horizontal travel.

What to expect

The ascent is tethered and operated within a limited zone for added stability. A qualified pilot manages the balloon, and you begin with a short safety briefing before boarding a shared basket for a small group of passengers. Take-off and landing happen on the same site near the town.

Why Pavel Banya

• Wide panoramas north to the Balkan Mountains and south across the Rose Valley.
• Great first step into ballooning — no drift, controlled height, more predictable conditions.
• Appealing both to visitors and locals looking for a fresh perspective on familiar landscapes.

How it works

2. Receive a short safety briefing from the crew.
3. Board the basket and enjoy a smooth, vertical ascent to working height.
4. Take a few minutes for photos and the 360° panorama.
5. Land in a controlled descent back on the same field.
