Where Nature and Adventure Float Together

Hot air balloon flights over the Avon Valley offer a truly magical experience, and it’s the only place in Western Australia where you can fly commercially in a hot air balloon. As the sun rises, golden light spills over rolling hills, the winding Avon River, and vast fields of canola in spring. Flights depart from Northam, at the heart of the valley, just over an hour’s drive from Perth. For those based in the city or visitors seeking the convenience of a transfer, Liberty Balloon Flights provides return transport from Crown, Burswood, Perth.

Ballooning in the Avon Valley is a seasonal experience, with the flying season running from April through to early November each year. Over summer, conditions become too hot and windy for safe flying, making the cooler months the ideal time to enjoy the stillness and clarity of morning skies.

The Avon Valley is more than just beautiful…it’s rich in history. Nearby towns like Toodyay and York were among the first inland settlements in Western Australia and are home to heritage buildings, quaint cafés, and plenty of country character. From the air, these towns reveal a unique story only a balloon can tell.

Your experience begins with a transfer from Perth and ends with breakfast and a scenic return journey – an all-inclusive morning escape designed to deliver calm, wonder, and connection with Western Australia’s historic Avon Valley.
