On your Alice Springs hot air balloon voyage with Outback Ballooning, you will soar through the sky while observing the rugged terrain below. Your journey begins before sunrise, where you will be picked up from your Alice Springs accommodation. From there, you will meet your fellow passengers and take flight.
As you ascend, you will begin to see the sun breaking through the horizon. Its glow will start to light up the landscape over the beautiful McDonnell Ranges, and you will enjoy a spectacular sunrise. Make sure to have your camera ready - you never know when you might spot one of the area’s native Red Kangaroos down below!
Your 30- or 60-minute hot air balloon flight will take you over historic Owen Springs Station, a former cattle station and now a protected area that’s great for four-wheeling, bush camping and birdwatching.
Once you’ve arrived back on land, you can help the crew put away the colourful balloon if you’d like, or you can choose to chat with your fellow guests about the once-in-a-lifetime hot air balloon flight you’ve just experienced.
At this point in the morning, you can toast to your journey with a glass of Champagne or juice. You will receive a personalised flight certificate to commemorate your hot air balloon ride and proudly display when you get home. At the end of the trip, you will have the opportunity to purchase souvenirs to take home and share with family and friends.
