Sunset & Kata Tjuta |
Day 1 Uluru (Ayers Rock), Kata Tjuta
Be met on arrival at Ayers Rock Airport prior to 1:00pm
and transferred to the hotel. Travel out to the domes
of Kata Tjuta (the Olgas) and walk into Walpa (Olga)
Gorge, where some of the plants are so rare that they
are only found in and around these distinct sandstone
formations. Keep an eye out for the petroglyphs (stone
carvings) that can be found on the floor of the gorge.
In the late afternoon, stop to enjoy a glass of wine
while watching the brilliant display of colors on Uluru
as the sun sets over the desert plain.
Accommodation:
Ayers Rock Resort, Outback Pioneer (Standard), Desert
Gardens Hotel (First Class), Sails in the Desert (Deluxe).
Day 2 Uluru at Sunrise, Kantju Gorge,
Mutitjulu Waterhole, Guided Mala Walk
Rise early and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee as the
day’s first light strikes Uluru. With the sun still climbing,
take a guided walk to Mutitjulu waterhole. See cave
paintings and hear the legends of Kuniya Tjukurpa
(Python Dreaming). Tour the base of Uluru before
joining your guide and learn about the geology and
flora of the region on the Mala Walk. Explore Kantju
Gorge before visiting the Cultural Centre and Maruku
Arts and Craft Cooperative where you may see
Aboriginal artists at work. Alternatively, forgo the
Guided Mutitjulu and Mala walks to climb Uluru and
stand 1141 feet above the desert floor. Transfer to
Ayers Rock Airport. Note: Anangu, traditional owners, prefer
that visitors not climb Uluru. The climb may be closed without
notice due to weather or cultural reasons. No refunds will
be given in this situation.
