Aamodts Hot Air Balloons: Ever dream of viewing the stunning St.Croix River Valley via hot air balloon? Make the connection with one of our local flights now so that when the conditions are ideal you can take to the skies for a once in a lifetime experience!
Just Imagine… the yards of fabric being stretched out, warm air gently raising the gentle giant balloon upright and soon you are floating with the wind. After landing, our chase crew brings us back to the apple orchard and we celebrate our flight with a champagne toast in the old restored barn. There is no better way to experience a balloon flight than to take off from the property of Aamodt’s Apple Farm and Saint Croix Vineyards in Stillwater, Minnesota. During apple season, why not show up a little early for your flight and have a piece of hot apple pie from the bakery. Follow that with a sample of award winning wine in the winery or simply take a romantic stroll through the orchard.
The Aamodt’s Hot Air Balloon Experience
This video was produced to provide a preview of the hot air balloon experience. From takeoff to landing and all the precious experiences between. If you’re curious and interested in a hot air balloon ride, it’s a must-watch.
…
TWO HOT AIR BALLOON FLIGHT OPTIONS
Each of these options are flown by FAA certified pilots, some of the most experienced not only in Minnesota, but in the United States. We respect the fact that this is a once in a lifetime adventure for each passenger.
We do not offer large group flights, instead, we specialize in couples and small groups – offering personal touches not found elsewhere.

SMALL GROUP FLIGHT
- The Small Group Flight is in hot air balloons that hold up to eight passengers. This option is an affordable way to experience an intimate flight with a small group without the expense of a Private Flight.

PRIVATE FLIGHT
- The Private Flight means you are guaranteed that it will be just the two passengers and the pilot in your own balloon, great for engagements, anniversaries or if you just want to be by yourself (with the pilot of course).
