Alice Springs, Early Morning Hot Air Balloon Flight

Macdonnell Ranges, Alice springs, Australia

Outback Ballooning

Discover the unparalleled beauty of Australia's remote outback through an unforgettable ballooning experience. Witness the stunning dawn colors against the backdrop of this vast wilderness, where wildlife such as large red kangaroos can often be spotted during your flight above spinifex grasslands, mulga scrub, and cattle stations.



Your ballooning expedition commences in the dim pre-dawn hours as you are picked up from your accommodations in Alice Springs. Throughout the journey to the desert launch site, you will have the opportunity to familiarize yourself with the team members who conduct final weather checks and provide detailed instructions regarding the morning's activities. Upon arrival at the launch pad, gas burners are employed to carefully inflate the balloons, ensuring a smooth ascent into the sky. As the sun rises over the rugged MacDonnell Ranges, you will witness an expansive view of the Australian Outback. This remote landscape is home to diverse wildlife, including large red kangaroos, which can often be spotted throughout your journey.

Upon reaching cruising altitude, you will find yourselves suspended above the vastness of the Australian Outback, surrounded by the dense Spinifex Grasses, Mulga Scrub, and various cattle stations. Your flight offers unparalleled views of this natural wonderland, providing a serene escape from urban life.

Following your descent, you will embark on a program tailored specifically for you to immerse yourself deeply into the Australian Bush. Most landings occur in the arid desert environment, several kilometers away from any roads. This secluded location allows for complete privacy and tranquility, making it ideal for enjoying a refreshing glass of sparkling Australian wine or sipping on a blend of tropical apple and guava juice mixed together. Accompanied by a selection of muffins, biscuits, slices of cheese, and freshly prepared fruits, this morning's menu promises to be both delicious and rejuvenating.

The perfect conclusion to your adventure awaits—reembarking on your journey back to civilization aboard the bus, ready to continue exploring the wonders of Australia.
