Embark on an unforgettable experience that will take you to discover the breathtaking beauty of Elche and the Bajo Segura from above, with an exciting hot air balloon flight followed by a visit to the El Hondo nature reserve, where we will toast with a glass of cava and enjoy a delicious picnic at the end of the flight! This natural park is formed, as its name suggests, by two main lakes that are separated by an anticline, called El Chaparral. There is a canal that connects the two lakes and, at the same time, two other canals that connect the lakes with the sea, forming a salt exploitation unit. The park is used as a salt mine and is also an important nesting and wintering area for more than a hundred birds: flamingos, ducks, black-necked grebes, stilts and shelduck are just a few examples.

Our adventure will begin early in the morning, when we will gather at the take-off site to begin our exciting journey. With the help of our expert pilot, we will prepare to soar gently over the skies of Elche and the Bajo Segura, where we will witness spectacular panoramic views of the lush vegetation, fields and meandering waterways that make up this unique region. During the tour you will be able to take photos and enjoy the views.

As we float in the still air, we will have the opportunity to marvel at the natural beauty that lies at our feet, while our pilot shares interesting facts about the history, culture and geography of the area. There is no better way to experience the magnificence of Elche than from the serenity and majesty of a hot air balloon.

After approximately one hour of flight, we will land gently on dry land, where we will be welcomed with a glass of cava to toast this unforgettable experience and a nice picnic to celebrate it, surrounded by the serenity and beauty of nature.

At the end of the picnic, we will head to the nature reserve of El Hondo, where we will have the option of a guided tour and where we can explore its nature trails, watch birds and immerse ourselves in the tranquillity of this natural sanctuary.

And after this we will enjoy a tasting of traditional food in a restaurant in the Camp d'Elx area and, to finish, there will be nautical activities.

Join us on this exciting land and air expedition and discover the magic of Elche and the Bajo Segura as you have never imagined before! Book your place now and get ready to live an experience you will remember forever, we are waiting for you to soar together to new horizons and celebrate the beauty of nature with a glass of cava and an unforgettable picnic!
