Magic Clouds, Battle Creek

Whether they're flying just above tree-top range in search of wildlife or going "Mile-High Hugging" at upwards of 5,000 feet, the hot air balloons of Magic Clouds Balloon Corporation give riders a dynamic way to soar through the air and take in the sights. During the hot-air balloon flights, guests cruise over terra firma at alternating speeds and altitudes, which could allow them to wave at people on the ground or clean their ears on the tip of a cloud. The flights are operated by FAA-licensed pilots, and though times vary depending on conditions, include an average of between 45–90 minutes of airtime.
