Helicopter Flight paths

If you have a connection to the region, maybe had a career in the power industry, or an interest in the infrastructure that has helped shape it, this flight offers a unique perspective from above.

We’ll fly a circuit around the area where you can take in a mix of established energy sites and new developments. From the air, you’ll see power stations still in operation, alongside emerging solar farms and battery storage projects as the region continues to evolve.

It’s a rare opportunity to see both the past and future of the Latrobe Valley side by side – a landscape that has long played an important role in powering Victoria and is now transitioning toward renewable energy.

All flights return to base.
All flight paths are subject to weather conditions on the day and may be varied a little to achieve the best experience and view for passengers.
Flights are suitable for all ages.

A great option for Father’s Day
If you’d like to purchase a single ticket for your dad to see the Energy Circuit, please get in touch with us. We can place him on a waitlist and, where possible, group individual bookings together to create a shared flight.

While we can’t guarantee availability for single seats, we’ll always do our best to make it work – because we know how hard it can be to find a gift he’ll love!
