Hot Air Balloon Rides in Dorset Posted in Dorset Balloon Rides on  May 24, 2011 Dorset offers some of the UK’s most idyllic views, and what better way to see them than in a hot air balloon with Aerosaurus Balloons? Local areas of interest include Shaftesbury, one of England’s oldest and highest towns renowned for its cobbled streets and picturesque cottages; and Sherborne - a town steeped in medieval architecture sitting on the Dorset & Somerset border with an abundance of medieval buildings and two castles. Hot air ballooning in Dorset Posted in Dorset Balloon Rides on  July 27, 2010 Most people who love air activities look for ballooning, which is known as the best adventure sport in England. Being 5, 000 feet above the surface of the earth, sipping on champagne (or a soft drink!), one can see landmarks of the countryside from many different perspectives. A valley that runs from the south of Somerset through to Dorset is one of the most attractive view points for those who experience ballooning in Dorset. The town, the river basin and the Blackmore vale all together make the view dynamically exciting in a hot air balloon. Ballooning in Dorset starts from either Shaftesbury or Sherborne and people are extremely excited before the trip that allows them to view the county as never before. The area of Dorset is simply amazing because whichever way the wind takes you, you can see the greatness of the landscape and the scenes of medieval times very clearly along with the Southern coastline of England (allowing sights of Christchurch and Bournemouth). This is one of the reasons why ballooning in Dorset is so popular and people want to have a chance of experiencing it. It does't matter where the wind takes the balloon what can be seen throughout the flight is the truely memorable.
