3-Day Uluru Kata Tjuta Safari Tour from Ayers Rock/Yulara | Northern Territory

00:00

Set off towards Ayers Rock (Uluru) pulling in to Mt Conner lookout (false Uluru or Fool-uru) to appreciate the views across this extraordinary red mountain

We make a quick stop at Curtin Springs for a toilet break before settling in at our campground for lunch

Set off to the Red Centre’s indigenous interpretive cultural centre, where we immerse ourselves in learning about this extraordinary national park’s fascinating cultural, historical, ecological and geological significance

Arrive at the base of Uluru and stand in awe at this mammoth monolithic structure’s sheer magnificence and grandiosity as we get up close and personal

We begin trekking our way towards Mutitjulu waterhole to explore further, discovering sacred rock art sites in family caves and listening to ancient creation stories and dreamtime myths of Kuniya and Liru as we continue our hike towards Kuniya Piti

Take a short drive to Kantju Gorge, passing through sacred sites, including an elders cave and the world’s oldest pantry, arriving at the highest waterfall in Central Australia, a true spectacle to behold (especially when raining)

Set off early to catch a sensational sunrise at Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park

Together we hike through the Valley of the Winds or Walpa Gorge and marvel at the massive conglomerate rock formations

Once we’re finished exploring Kata Tjuta we head over towards Kings Canyon just in time to encounter another glorious outback sunset and enjoy a hearty meal around the fire back at our camp

Another early start as we set off into the ancient landscape and sacred traditional lands of the Ulpanyali and Lilla people to explore the monumental Kings Canyon (Watarrka), known as the crown jewel in the centre of Watarrka National Park (Kings Canyon)

Venture out on foot surrounded by steep towering cliff faces (over 100 metres high) to explore the canyon in more detail and take in the spectacular views of the unique sandstone chasms

After a well deserved rest our journey slowly winds down as we make our way back to our final destination, concluding our adventure together at Alice Springs at approximately 17:30 pm.
