Discover the Free State as you’ve never seen it before—peaceful, majestic, and almost impossibly beautiful from above. A hot air balloon flight is a quiet, dreamlike experience where time slows down and nature unfolds silently beneath you.
Choose between two unforgettable launch sites. In Clarens, you’ll float above the sandstone cliffs and wide open plains, with the striking Maluti Mountains stretching into the distance. After your flight, take time to explore this charming village, known for its art galleries, cafés, and mountain air. A truly special weekend can be created around this romantic adventure.
Or, if you’re curious about the history of the Earth, opt for a flight in Parys, where you drift over the mighty Vaal River and the Vredefort Dome, a UNESCO World Heritage Site formed by the largest known meteor impact on Earth.
Each flight lasts about an hour and forms part of a relaxed four-hour experience. Start with a hot drink at dawn as you watch the balloon being prepared, then toast your landing with sparkling wine. Enjoy a buffet breakfast and take home a personalised flight certificate—a memento of your skyward journey.
