Longreach Sunset Helicopter Flight - 20 Minutes

Take to the skies above Longreach on a 20 minute sunset helicopter flight through the heart of Outback Queensland, where the late afternoon light sets the whole landscape glowing. As you lift off and climb above the plains, your experienced pilot points out the lay of the land while you settle in with your headset and take in the view. Trace the winding path of the Thomson River below, watch the wide open country stretch to the horizon and feel the colours shift from gold to deep amber as the sun slips lower.

This is golden hour at its finest, with sweeping aerial views and photo opportunities at every turn. The outback has a way of looking endless from above, and there are few better ways to take it in than from the comfort of a helicopter cabin. Whether you are marking a special occasion or simply chasing one of the best sunsets the region has to offer, this short scenic flight delivers a perspective on Longreach and its surrounds that stays with you long after you touch down.
