We regret to advise that the chicken breakfast will cease to operate from April 2010.
Let us introduce you to the gentle joy and total freedom of Hot Air Ballooning
What better way to see some of the most rugged and spectacular
scenery in Central Australia? Your morning begins before dawn
when the wind is gentle and a new day is about to begin. Soaring
majestically over the terrain you will be overcome by the awesome
and vast landscape which stretches out endlessly underneath.
Watch the kangaroos bounce and
speed their way on their journeys, gaze up to the swirling
eagles and cruise over the peaks of the ancient MacDonnell
Ranges stretching out like a family of caterpillars crawling
over the heart of Australia.
Spinifex Ballooning
has been operating in the Alice Springs area since April 1992.
Our Chief Pilot has over 20 years ballooning experience and
over 2000 hours flying time with an impeccable safety record.
We hold all the necessary Insurance and Civil Aviation Certificates
to operate.
Our passengers are collected in climate controlled comfortable
vehicles one and a half hours before sunrise from your accommodation
house in Alice Springs. You are then driven to the launch
site, which is determined on the morning depending on the
wind direction. We have about 20 different launch sites within
a 40km radius of Alice Springs, and these locations are
individually chosen due to their picturesque and unique settings.
