Ballooning Tours in Rajasthan
The spirit of adventure and bravery hasalways been a prominent part of Rajasthani
life. In the days of yore, hunting was the major source of excitement for
the people. Pitting their wits against the most ferocious of animals was
considered a challenge. Wrestling was yet another outlet for those seeking
a show of strength. Today times have changed but the search for adventure
still remains. So if one is driven by the call of adventure, come to Rajasthan.
Rajasthan - a land blessed with golden sands, meandering Chambal and
Banas rivers, Aravalli hills, forests and rolling meadows, cascading water
falls and hospitable people, steeped in a rich culture. The possibilities
are limitless for indulging in water sports like boating, water sailing,
rafting and fishing in lakes. The more adventurous can opt for parasailing
and hang gliding in the Aravalli hills.
Ballooning
The joy of being aloft in the wind and the thrill of defying the elements
is what ballooning are all about. Unlike other aero sports, in these, once
off the ground, the sportsman is on his own. Since the skies are an element
foreign to us, it would be judicious to take all precautions before indulging
in the joy afforded by the sports. Responsibility for the safety of the
sportsman depends to a large extent on the team helping out in this sport.
Ballooning on the other hand permits the balloonist to soar high in the
sky and drift over the picturesque terrain.
Parasailing and ballooning are annual events held in Jaipur, Jodhpur,
Jaisalmer and Pushkar and attract a large number of tourists and adventure
seekers.
