“To be absolutely alone for the first time in the cockpit of a plane hundreds of feet above
the ground is an experience never to be forgotten.” – Charles Lindbergh
Don’t worry, you won’t be “absolutely alone” but you will be “hundreds of feet above the ground” and the experience will never be forgotten!
Start your day with Portland’s premier Nordic brunch at Broder Øst restaurant, located adjacent to the Hood River Hotel lobby.
After brunch, head to the airport. You will be escorted to the glider staging area and introduced to your pilot, who will custom design your flight to match your desires and the weather conditions.
At flight time you will be assisted into the glider and rolled onto the runway where the pilot, ground crew, and tow pilot will coordinate the launch procedures. The tow plane will launch the glider and cruise to soaring altitude where your pilot will release the tow rope.
Whether you’re due for a celebration, or need to relax after a week of hard work, this two-night Hood River Soar and Brunch Package is exactly what you need. Hood River Soaring will help you escape the daily grind by taking you on a tour of the Valley.
Free from the sound or power of engines, you will experience a grand view of the snow capped mountains, river valleys, verdant orchards and countryside that make the Hood River valley a truly unique and breathtaking place to soar. Soar the ridge or catch a thermal as you traverse the beautiful valley below. Approximate flight time: 40-50 minutes Tow to 3,000-5,000 foot release altitude.
After your flight, kick up your heels at the Hood River Hotel where you can lounge in our vintage lobby, relax in the dry room sauna, or retire to your room to unwind before heading out on the town.
