About the town of Kissing
Kissing – a bird's-eye view of the town and surrounding area
The municipality of Kissing in the Swabian district of Aichach-Friedberg is located just a few kilometers south of Augsburg. Among the sights are the chapels and churches of the municipality, such as St. Peter's Chapel, the former fortified church of St. Stephen, and the pilgrimage church of Burgstallkapelle. Residents of Kissing who only know these landmarks from below will be amazed at how different these remarkable buildings look from a bird's eye view during a balloon ride. In addition, you should not miss the opportunity to view the ring wall in Ottmaringer Holz from lofty heights. From above, you get a completely different view.
Finally, the residents of the community also benefit from the opportunity to see their own homes from above. Another advantage of a balloon ride over Kissing is not only that you can see familiar landscapes from the air, but also that you don't have to travel far to enjoy this fun experience. So if you are still looking for a great gift for relatives or friends from Kissing, a balloon ride is an excellent idea. However, under certain circumstances, it may not be possible for the balloon to take off from Kissing. In this case, you can switch to the nearby city of Augsburg and then slowly float down to the community.
A hot air balloon offers a wonderful panoramic view of the community and the surrounding countryside. The Kissinger Heide and the Auensee in the local recreation areas are particularly worth mentioning. Between Friedberg and Kissing, there is also the Erlebniswelt Bayerischer Hiasl, dedicated to the Bavarian national hero. Viewed from the air, the full beauty of the area unfolds.
