Barossa Valley Deluxe 30 Minute Flight
Take exploring the Barossa Valley to a whole new level with a 30 minute Barossa Valley Deluxe helicopter flight. Book your tickets here!
What to expect
Lush, serene views and vast plains await you from the moment you lift off from the heli-pad. Kick back and enjoy some of the best sights we have to offer. First, we will fly you past the charming township of Lyndoch before tracking along the western ridge of the Barossa Valley to Historic Seppeltsfield.
Here you will see stunning vineyards contouring the rolling hills, palm tree studded roads and the Seppelt Family mausoleum, which is certainly a sight to behold. From there you will fly over Maggie Beer’s farm before veering along the highway, around the Wolf Blass winery, and then marveling at the view over the large limestone quarry near the town of Angaston.
From Angaston the view is an awesome 180-degree view of the Barossa valley and beyond. Descend into the valley towards Tanunda, your pilot will point out some of the historic buildings and settlements like Chateau Tanunda and Bethany.
Beyond Tanunda is Rowland flat – home of the famous Jacobs Creek Winery where you will view some of Australia’s largest wine tanks. From there we take you to the southern end of the Barossa, over the Barossa Goldfields and the Whispering Wall (the Barossa Reservoir) before returning to the Hoffnungsthal Valley.
