Riding in a Hot Air Balloon is like no other type of flying. It is an unusual sensation of floating combined with a beautiful display of the earth below. Ballooning is also a peek into the past. The dream of flying has always been in the minds of men and was first accomplished in a hot air balloon.
Experience the beauty of South Dakota by drifting gently over the prairie and farmland. Once aloft, the balloon floats so softly on the breezes that the wind "disappears" - there is no sensation of movement, for you have become the wind drifting along. Catch a bird's-eye view of the natural beauty of the landscape in the ever-changing seasons. Imagine what the first settlers must have seen as their prairie schooners crossed the area many years ago. Quite often we see deer, pheasant and other wildlife as we drift gently along.
For over 13 years Prairie Sky has delighted customers with balloon flights over the scenery of South Dakota. Prairie Sky offers hot air balloon rides, flight instruction and flight testing for private or commercial certificates in hot air balloons. We fly the entire year: spring, summer, winter and fall.
