BALLOON SEASON May - November
The Avon Valley and the peaceful adventure of floating in the wind!
Enjoy the spectacular views from a balloon basket and experience this ancient sport in Northam, the centre of the picturesque Avon Valley. Depending on the wind direction, we shall choose launch locations to try to give you the best views at sunrise that the day can offer. At Liberty Balloon Flights we give you the finest experience of free flight in a balloon in the whole of Australia, hands down.
Breathtaking views and safety assured with pilots who have been flying for over 27 years, not only in Western Australia but also, for close to 20 years, Melbourne. The experience starts early, at around 5:30 am but we will contact you in the evening before your flight to confirm the exact time. We follow the Sun and we try to be airborne just before dawn, hence the early start.
Ballooning is a hands-on experience and there are simple tasks for those who'd like to participate in setting the balloon up for the flight and there is certainly a job for everyone when we need to pack the balloon away after we have landed!

The flight itself will last about one hour and your pilot will use the winds at different heights to navigate to the most appropriate landing site. At the end of it all, we will drive back to Northam for a well-deserved breakfast - Champagne and chocolates or breakfast after the flight is on us!
Departure details:
5.00am on Saturday & Sunday's - meet at the Farmers Home Hotel, in the township of Northam - address will be provided 24hours prior to flight date by the pilot
* if you are wanting to fly during the week click here to pay $345 adult & $315 child *
What to wear:
Dress for an outdoor activity. Be PRACTICAL in every sense. Ballooning tends to be a hands-on experience and you can get a little dirty on different tasks, especially on helping to pack the balloon away after the flight. Avoid expensive clothes and whites if possible. Wear closed in shoes too - boots are best and definitely no heels!
Special Message from Liberty Balloons
Your happiness is our business, and we make sure you have fun while enjoying the spectacular aerial views. We take your well-being during your time with us and in our balloon seriously. Our team reviews key details with you before your flight in our safety briefing to ensure that you understand what will take place during the ride. While you are in the air, one of our vehicles follows us on the ground through visual and radio contact to meet us at our landing site, help us pack the balloon away and then drive us back to our original meeting point for a well-deserved breakfast. If you have any hesitations, please let us know so we can help alleviate your doubts.
