自 2011 年夏天起，臺灣國際熱氣球嘉年華每年都會定期舉行。本活動舉辦時間長達一個多月，這使它成為世界上為期最長的熱氣球嘉年華。熱氣球嘉年華每屆會展示許多不一樣的氣球。有一些有傳統的造型，而有些則是呈現出受歡迎電影角色的形狀，例如小小兵或黑武士。

For those who prefer a more hands-on approach to air activities, there is paragliding. Paragliding is similar to skydiving but is done closer to the ground. To paraglide, a person must wear a harness tied to a parachute, and then run down the side of a steep hill. The parachute will catch the wind, like a kite, and the paraglider can fly on the breeze for a while, enjoying a lovely view of Taiwan.

比較偏好親身體驗空中活動的人可以玩飛行傘。飛行傘運動類似高空跳傘，不過它的飛行高度較接近地面。為了操作飛行傘，你需要穿上連著降落傘的繫帶，然後沿著陡坡向下跑。飛行傘會像風箏一樣乘著風，玩飛行傘的人可以短暫地在微風中翱翔，享受著臺灣的美麗景色。
