Outback Ballooning
Experience the serenity of the Northern Territory with Outback Ballooning, with your choice of either a half hour or hour scenic flight as the dawn breaks over the MacDonnell Ranges. Your scenic flight starts with pre-dawn pick up, then be there as the crew start to inflate you balloon as you watch the sun light up the rugged MacDonnell Ranges.
Your scenic hot air balloon flight is a great way to see the spectacular Australian Outback. Drift over the rugged landscape and appreciate its immensity. You will most likely see the big red kangaroos in their natural habitat amongst the spinifex grasses and mulga scrub and cattle stations.
