The skies over Winthrop brighten with the brilliant colors of over a dozen hot air balloons. This 3-day Balloon Roundup is a photographer’s dream. An incredible visual display as the balloons fly over the old western town of Winthrop and the snow-capped mountains of the North Cascades.

While many balloon festivals are held in the summertime, the Winthrop Balloon Roundup allows visitors to experience the Methow Valley’s world-class winter recreational pursuits of Nordic skiing, snowshoeing, backcountry skiing, snowmobiling, and sledding. Winthrop has activities for the whole family.

After the final launch on Sunday, March 3rd, join us for a Grand Heights Brunch to enjoy a special menu and the finest views in the Methow Valley from 7:30-10:30 AM. Please make your reservations as soon as possible.  Open Table
