PACKAGE DETAILS
Wake before the Valley does.
See the Yarra Valley from a different perspective as you take to the skies at sunrise. Drift above vineyards, farmland and winding waterways, watching the morning light move across the countryside.
Up, Up & Stay pairs a sunrise balloon flight with Liberty Balloon Flights with an overnight stay at Yarra Valley Lodge. After landing, return to Yarra Valley Lodge for a generous buffet breakfast at Bella Restaurant and a slower pace for the rest of the day. From there, ease into the afternoon with a walk along the Yarra River and Mount Lofty Walk, a cellar door visit, or a relaxed time back on the estate with a glass of regional wine.
This is the Yarra Valley at its most cinematic.
Package Inclusions
- Overnight accommodation with buffet breakfast
- Bottle of regional wine on arrival
- Approximately one-hour sunrise hot air balloon flight with Liberty Balloon Flights
- Transfers to and from the launch and landing sites
From early morning adventure to an easy afternoon back on the estate, every detail is coordinated so you can simply show up and enjoy the experience.
A Seamless Valley Experience
Ballooning is weather dependent and confirmed the evening prior to flight. In the unlikely event conditions prevent flying, guests may choose to reschedule or adjust their stay in line with the balloon operator’s availability.
After your flight, spend the afternoon exploring the Valley at ground level. Visit Four Pillars Gin in Healesville, enjoy a round at one of the nearby Yarra Valley golf courses, stop by the Yarra Valley Chocolaterie and Ice Creamery, or return to the Lodge for a relaxed afternoon before retreating to your room.
