Private Hot Air Balloon

Want to really get your partner’s heart pumping? There’s nothing quite as heart-racing as being 2000ft in the air! Now, if rollercoasters and crazy heights aren’t your thing, there’s no need to jump to conclusions just yet. A hot air balloon is a peaceful and calming experience and definitely one to tick off the bucket list. Imagine drifting gently above the rolling vineyards with just you, your loved one, and the breathtaking Hunter Valley scenery. Can it get any more romantic?

There's something truly magical about sharing that kind of moment. It's not just about the ride; it's about celebrating your togetherness. We understand that it may not be for everyone, but if you want a truly unforgettable Hunter Valley experience, a hot air balloon ride is the perfect way to add a touch of magic to a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

 

Cycle through the Scenery

Feeling adventurous? Swap the car for two wheels and explore the Hunter Valley in style. Cycling through the vineyards, surrounded by stunning scenery and the company of your loved one, sounds like it’s straight from a film. Plus, with the inevitable consumption of charcuterie boards and cheese platters, getting a bit of exercise from destination to destination is a great way to not only burn off some calories but to immerse yourself in the Hunter Valley environment.

Hop on an e-bike for a leisurely ride, or challenge yourself on a more strenuous route. Don't miss the chance to experience the thrill of the open road with the iconic Broken Back Range as your backdrop. Trust us, it's a fantastic way to work up an appetite for that next wine tasting!
