Go hot air ballooning over the Flinders Ranges. The beauty and complex landforms of the Wilpena Pound area can only be truly appreciated from the air. After returning safely to land there will be a light breakfast accompanied by sparkling Australian wine or fruit juice.

We meet early in the morning where you will get to know your pilot, crew and fellow adventurers during the short pre-dawn drive to the launch site of the day. Participants may choose to be involved in the brief preparation or stand back and take photographs as the balloon is inflated and made ready to lift gently above the countryside.

Once in the air the balloon floats as a perfect viewing platform with no turbulence, vibration or noise - other than the occasional reassuring roar of the burner . Passengers will travel gently across the vast expanse of the Australian Outback – keeping an eye out for native wildlife – and watch the morning light bathe the hills and ramparts.

There is no turbulence or vibration as the balloon moves with the wind. With eyes closed it is impossible to tell that you are flying. Also it's no colder in the air than on the ground. In fact it is often warmer with the burners overhead and the balloon flies above the night time low level cold air temperature inversion.

At the end of the 1 hour flight we will land safely back on the ground there will be a light breakfast of exotic slices, muesli, cheese and biscuits accompanied by sparkling Australian wine or fruit juice.
