What to Expect
Treat yourself and someone special to this bespoke helicopter experience taking in the natural beauty of the Glasshouse Mountains and surrounds.
With their 11 gorgeous peaks, the region is a natural playground of walking tracks, horse trails and abseiling locations, with the mountains also home to six small townships, linked by rail and country roads and all waiting to be seen from above.
From the awe-inspiring ancient volcanic landscape that is iconic to the Sunshine Coast, to the pristine clear waters around Caloundra, take the ultimate discovery tour by air, flying high above the tallest peak, Mount Beerwah, which stands at 556 metres above sea level.
Ensuring the passengers obtain the best possible views of this Australian spectacle, this 30 minute tour highlights the magnificent mountainous remnants of volcanic activity that formed the vertical rock columns 25-27 million years ago, creating the natural wonder that we appreciate today.
Listed on both the Queensland and national heritage registers as a landscape of national importance due to their cultural significance to the area's traditional Aboriginal owners, the Gubbi Gubbi people.
Discover the past and create memories that last long into your future, with every angle explored.
