Buffalo River Hot Air Ballooning specializes in flights from the Upper Buffalo River area of Newton  County, Arkansas and from Harrison, Boone County, Arkansas.  Newton County, Arkansas offers it all, from canoeing, kayaking or swimming in the pristine, mineral-rich aqua-marine waters of the Buffalo River to hiking the numerous trails through the national forest, alongside rivers, waterfalls, gigantic limestone bluffs and over mountains, enjoying glorious scenery everywhere you look!  The quaint little town of Jasper with the friendly mountain-folk, the famous scenic Hwy 7, and Harrison, the perfect small town in which to raise a family ~ these are all diamonds on the verge of discovery. We at Buffalo River Hot Air Ballooning would like to show you all of this from a new perspective!

The Upper Buffalo National River area is home to a very diverse population composed of ancestors of the original settlers, Back-to-the-Landers who came in the 70's (are still coming or returning), artists, creative professionals, retirees and simply lovers of the outdoors.  They came for the restorative elements of Newton County:  clean water, mineral-rich fertile soil, pure mountain air, pleasant climate and the disarming beauty.  Newton County, Arkansas being 67% National Forest (and not a single stop light) ~ is one of the best kept secrets in the entire US.  It is still pristine and mostly wilderness areas.

Come visit the area and let us at Buffalo River Hot Air Ballooning show you why Newton & Boone County and particularly the Upper Buffalo River area is "a little piece of heaven on earth"...
