Global Ballooning Australia

Sunrise flights above vineyards, valleys and rolling hills

Hot air ballooning in the Yarra Valley is one of Victoria’s most memorable experiences, offering a peaceful and panoramic way to see the region at first light. Located  50 minutes from Peppers Marysville, sunrise balloon flights drift gently above vineyards, farmland and winding river flats as the day begins.

Float above one of Victoria’s most celebrated regions

As the balloon rises, you’ll take in sweeping views across cool-climate vineyards, forested hills and the meandering Yarra River. On clear mornings, distant mountain ranges frame the horizon, while kangaroos can sometimes be seen moving across open paddocks below.

The Yarra Valley’s rich agricultural history, boutique wineries and natural beauty create a landscape that feels particularly special from above. For wine lovers, it’s a unique way to appreciate the region before continuing the day with cellar door tastings or long lunches.

Flight options to suit your occasion

Several flight experiences are available, allowing you to tailor the morning to your plans. Options typically include:

  • Flight-only experiences
  • Flight and breakfast packages
  • Private flights for two, four or eight guests
  • Small group sunrise journeys

Private balloon flights are especially popular for proposals, anniversaries and milestone celebrations, offering a more intimate experience as the sun rises over the Yarra Valley.

Early starts are part of the adventure, but the calm air and soft morning light make it well worth it.
