Hot Air Balloon Cairns

Experience Mareeba from a whole new perspective with a spectacular hot air balloon flight over the Atherton Tablelands, with Hot Air Balloon Cairns.

Taking off around sunrise, Hot Air offers visitors the chance to float peacefully above Mareeba’s sweeping farmland, rolling landscapes and wide-open spaces as the region comes to life below. With its favourable flying conditions and beautiful scenery, Mareeba has become one of Australia’s best-known destinations for hot air ballooning.

Visitors can choose to self-drive and meet the Hot Air team at the Mareeba Heritage Centre, before being transferred to the morning’s launch site. After landing, guests are returned to Mareeba, leaving plenty of time to continue exploring the region’s cafés, farm gates, attractions and natural landscapes.

Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for an unforgettable way to experience the Mareeba Shire, a sunrise balloon flight is a memorable addition to any Tropical North Queensland itinerary.
