Our Pilots will take you up to 9500 ft above the patchwork Canterbury Plains with spectacular Panoramic views west to the Mountains and east to the Pacific Ocean.
Launching from the famous foothills of Mt Hutt. The flight can only be described as exhilarating, gliding above the treetops and rising up to watch as the Canterbury Plains roll out in front of you. Then looking west you will see the majestic snow caped Southern Alps.

We meet in the center of Methven where there is ample parking and conveniences. After introductions, we will travel in our 4X4 chase vehicle to the best launch site for the given wind direction on the day (approx. 20 mins). We will then have a safety briefing and inflate the balloons. After take-off we usually climb to a good altitude for seeing the panoramic views and take pictures (we also have a camera attached to the balloon for inflight photographs). After which we descend to a lower altitude for the second half of the flight where you will be able to see things on the ground better. After landing we will enjoy a celebration drink in the landing field and then travel back to Methven in the chase vehicle, which will have been following us throughout the flight.
Methven
There can be few finer places to take a balloon flight than New Zealand's Canterbury Plains. We take off close to the foothills of Mt. Hutt, where the mountains provide excellent shelter from the prevailing North Westerly winds. We have unlimited airspace restrictions upto 9,500 ft which gives us fantastic views across the southern alps as far away as Mt. Cook and Mt. Aspiring and also looking East across the patchwork landscape of the plains to the Pacific coast. Methven is a great place to spend a few days with many other attractions including mountain walks and the Lord of the Rings site at Mt. Sunday.

Great first hot air balloon flight

5.00Our first experience of hot air ballooning and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Great people to book with. Pre-flight communication was excellent and Graham and his team on the day were great. It added to the experience that we all got involved in inflating the balloon at the start and packing up at the end. Graham takes you out to where he thinks might be suitable but then moves on if it’s not. We were lucky and our 2nd location was suitable and it didn’t take long to get set up and off we went. As people have said, you do take off and land in farmers field so there’s the potential for walking through mud….or worse. And once everything is packed up the whole experience is nicely topped off with a glass of champagne and a muffin. Definitely recommend doing this if you’re in the Methven area.
