Company Overview
In current times, making a flight is something very simple and within everyone's reach. In our company we have two ways of doing it, both very different so that each person can choose which way to rise to the clouds.
The first of them is using a paraglider. A monitor will accompany the client in a two-seater paraglider, being the one who directs the flight and allowing the passenger to quietly enjoy the trip and even take photos with a special camera. There are different types of flights depending on which area you depart from, and there is even the option that the user can manage the course if they so wish.
The second consists of a hot air balloon ride. Each trip has capacity for more than one person, so it is a highly recommended activity to do in small groups, such as with your partner on a romantic trip. You will be able to attend the balloon assembly live, seeing from the inside how this gigantic hot air bag works.
Choose the one you like the most and finally fulfill that old dream of contemplating the entire landscape with a bird's eye view.
Summary Hot Air Balloon Rides
We cover some of the main areas of Asturias on our aerial journeys, such as the coastal Gijón, the capital Oviedo, and some less urban areas such as the Valle de Nava or the touristy Llanes.
At the beginning, before boarding, the necessary instructions will be given to know how to act in the balloon, as well as the basic notions of safety. You can see from the front line how the structure is assembled and the balloon is inflated, and even participate in it if you wish. The routes last between 45 minutes and an hour, enough time to explore the area in question and contemplate the beautiful views.
At the end, a diploma will be presented stating that the person has made the trip, and a toast will be made to celebrate that moment. After that, you will return to the starting place after collecting the balloon.
It should be taken into account that the weather condition can influence whether or not the activity is carried out.
Walking through the sky has never been so easy. Fly with us.
Summary Paragliding
Flying in Asturias offers you the opportunity to experience first-hand what it is like to fly through the sky and over the most spectacular places. This is possible thanks to the technology of paragliding, an easy way to fly while you are accompanied by an instructor who will be in charge of directing the trip and everything necessary so that you simply open your eyes wide and enjoy the experience to the fullest.
We have four types of flights, among which you can choose the one you like the most.
- Coastal flight. A trip close to the sea in which you will see what those beaches and rock formations against which the waves crash look like from above.
- Mountain flight. Departing from Picu del Sol, you will be able to observe from above how all the streets, squares and paths of the illustrious city of Gijón come together and mix.
- High mountain flight. Jump from a high altitude and see the mountain you once saw from below. The height that will be reached will exceed several centimeters of meters. Did you ever think you would see L'Angliru or Cotobello like this?
- Flight and piloting. If you want to go one step further and go as a companion is not enough, you can try to be the one who directs the paragliding thanks to the teachings of our instructors.
The durations are variable depending on the tastes of the traveler and the place. At the end of each trip, you will be given a complete set of photos that were taken on the journey. An unforgettable memory!

Very friendly and good professionals. They keep you informed the night before to find out if you are compensated to go to Asturias in case there is enough wind or if there is not enough to look for another date on which to make the flight.

Good experience, incredible views, very nice monitors.
All in all, the only thing I do not like is that it takes too long to send the video.
Company's response:
Hello, Juan Carlos,
Thank you for flying with us. The theme of the videos is something that although it is true takes a few days all this is done to save you having to bring or buy an SD card in the flight area as other companies.
We upload the videos the day after the flight to a server that sends them to you, but you have to understand that when you send them completely raw so that you have the video at the highest quality around 1.5 to 2 GB, This multiplied by 70 or even 80 reservations a summer weekend makes it go a little slower.
In any case, we are glad that it is only that small detail that you least liked and that you have enjoyed and gone well with everything else.
We hope to see you again soon. & Nbsp;
& nbsp;
A greeting.

It was the most incredible experience I have ever experienced, unfortunately due to the strong winds, my partner and I could not do it simultaneously. Sure we will repeat !!! The attention of Hugo and the girl who is part of the team was fantastic. -

I liked it so much and I had such a good time, that this year for the month of June or July I plan to repeat the experience and bring a new relative.
Seeing Gijón from the heights after having lived so many years there is something unforgettable. I recommend it to all those who want to spend an unforgettable experience. I lived more than 40 years in Gijón, now I have been living in Torrevieja for 12 years and seeing the green from the heights is something precious. -

Everything was good. Jorge very attentive. The flight and the landing also great, in addition the time accompanied us. Maybe a bit slow exit because it was decided to wait for the other balloon to take off. But it was fine overall and the recipient of the gift was very happy. -

Impressive feeling of flying. Not only the activity is great for the sensations and the landscapes in sight of bird (Crow's Hill). The people who form the crew of volarenasturias, both on the ground and the pilot, provide an exquisite treatment. Very important and thank you to get in touch the night before the day of the flight to confirm or cancel before adverse climatology. -

Awesome paragliding experience. We flew from Crow's Hill; You can not lose this. The kindness of the people of this company is total; they pamper you and do everything you can to fly. Very important the fact that they warn you the night before the flight to cancel or not according to the weather. Thanks to the two people who helped us on land and especially to Diego (Coco), the pilot. -

An incredible experience !!! Flying in Asturias was very attentive to us, they gave us many facilities and informed us great at all times. It is an activity that depends on how long you do at the time of the activity, but it pays to be patient and able to carry out this adventure.
