Discover Uluru and Red Centre Australia

 
Uluru is undoubtedly up there as Australia’s most iconic postcard image, so will you make the pilgrimage to that famous Great Rock that looms on the fiery red horizon?
 
Any adventure tour to the Red Centre begins in Alice Springs. Often used as a pit stop as the gateway to a plethora of popular tourist sites, Alice Springs is smack-bang in the middle of Australia and is a hub of Aboriginal art and a great place to plan your outback adventure before you set off, and also grab some last minute essentials before you lose yourself in the great crimson heart of Australia.
 
Australia’s Red Centre cuts a dramatic silhouette littered with impressive geological formations, and a trip to this area will reveal more than just the world famous Uluru. It’s here that you’ll also find Kata Tjuta – also known as The Olgas. Kata Tjuta is a group of 36 large domed rock formations spread over a whopping 20 kilometres of the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park – a popular highlight of all Uluru Tours. Interesting fact – the highest dome, Mount Olga is named in honour of Queen Olga of Württemberg, Germany.
 
During your time in Australia’s Red Centre a visit to Kings Canyon will also unveil yet another epic vista that will leave you feeling dwarfed in comparison. Kings Canyon is a mammoth gorge with rock faces that scale hundreds of metres. Deep in the gorge you’ll find hidden rock-pools and lush plant life as well as many animals that call the gorge home, including; broad-nosed bats, flocks of zebra finches, the Spinefex hopping mouse and the thorny devil to name but a mere handful of the local inhabitants.
 
Kings Canyon’s most famous spots include the Lost City, Garden of Eden, Amphitheatre and North and South Walls, however a walk around the Kings Canyon Rim will present enough Kodak moments to last you a lifetime.
