LIBERTY BALLOON FLIGHTS

Immerse yourself in the serene adventure of ballooning over Geelong, the Bellarine and the area that is the gateway to the Great Ocean Road.

Its sunrise flights offer a magical and safe adventure, starting early to capture the perfect sunrise and ideal weather conditions.

Attendees meet at The Rydges Geelong (Myers St & Gheringhap St, Geelong) about 1½ hours before dawn, between 4:00 am and 6:00 am, depending on the season.

From there, participants are transferred to the selected launch site.

The activity is one of “audience participation,” allowing passengers to assist with balloon preparations if able to. This process takes about 30 minutes.

Take-off locations vary based on wind direction, ensuring the best views and safety.

Possible launch sites include the Bellarine Peninsula, Geelong city, Murgheboluc, or Bannockburn, offering stunning vistas such as Port Phillip Bay, the ocean, and the Barwon River.

Once airborne, guests experience a smooth and tranquil ride, navigating with different wind layers.

Ballooning emphasises reflection and appreciation over adrenaline, with no risk of altitude sickness.

The entire adventure lasts about 3 to 4 hours, including a delicious breakfast back at The Rydges after your flight.

As one guest beautifully stated, “Balloons are one of the few human creations that enhance nature.”

Book a peaceful adventure today and discover the joy of floating with the wind. For more information, visit www.libertyballoonflights.com.au, email [email protected] or call 1800 BALLOON (22 55 66).
