Majestic Southern Alps Ballooning Adventure

See the sun rise on the Majestic Southern Alps. Floating up to 2400 metres high, (8,000ft) you will see a panorama of lakes and mountains stretching from Mt Cook (3765m) in the north to Mt Tutoko in Fiordland. Below is a varied landscape of deer, sheep and cattle farms, beautiful gardens and vineyards! You fly in a valley near beautiful Lake Wakatipu and the Shotover River surrounded by mountains before landing in a grassy field to enjoy a champagne-style breakfast. Enjoy a birds eye view of some locations used in “The Lord Of The Rings”, for example: The Ford Of Bruinen, Dimrill Dale, The Gates of Argonath and The Pillars Of The Kings. Also visible is Mount Earnslaw, one of the great mountains seen in Isengard.
