Description:
Discover the incredible colors, grand expanses, and immense scenery of the Outback with a 3-day adventure to some of its most incredible sights. See the huge stone formations of Uluru and Kata Tjuta, learn their importance to Australia's native people, and hike to some of the best views around.
Day 1:
Your first excursion takes you to the massive domed rocks of Kata Tjuta, where your guide explains the geological history of the distinctive landmarks. Follow a rocky walking path that takes you through the valley, right between the massive red conglomerate rocks, and marvel at the unique flora and fauna that survived in this harsh environment.
When you reach the Valley of the Winds Lookout, take some time to gaze out over the central valley of Kata Tjuta and watch a magnificent Outback sunset.
Day 2:
Watch the dawn set the Red Centre Alight from Talinguru Nyakunytjaku, the Uluru sunrise viewing area, and then accompany your guide to start your base walk. Begin at Kuniya Piti, an Uluru sacred site, and hear the stories of the local Aboriginal people, their beliefs and law.
Next up is the Mala Walk, which takes you into Kantju Gorge, one of the most important habitats for the local people over thousands of years. Here, rainwater cascades over the side of Uluru along a 300-foot (90-m) plunge. After a short rest break, continue on along the Lungkata Walk, where your guide will tell you the story of the cheeky Blue Tongue Lizard.
Your next stop is the Mutitjulu Waterhole, where your guide shows you the natural features of the landscape and Aboriginal rock paintings, and relates more traditional stories about this special place. The last section of your base walk takes you back to Kuniya Piti, where you will board your coach into town and receive a certificate of your achievement.
In the late afternoon, travel to a sunset viewing area to see the striking colors that wash over Uluru.
Day 3:
Your short break concludes in the morning, as you transfer to Ayers Rock Airport for your onward flight.
