This small group adventure encompasses the very best the Red Centre has to offer. Four days, exploring four iconic locations (Uluru, Kings Canyon, Kata Tjuta and Tjoritja West MacDonnell Ranges) all wrapped up in one tour.

There is a very good reason why Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park is included on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The park was first added to the list in 1987, when the international community recognised its spectacular geological formations, rare plants and animals, and outstanding natural beauty. Your expert local guide will uncover some of the incredible secrets the Red Centre has to offer with guided -commentary, stories, and hidden gems that really bring this place to life.

We have comfortable twin safari tents providing a little more comfort, privacy, and security, or you can try out a traditional swag experience (canvas-covered bedroll).

Highlights:
  • Kings Canyon Watarrka National Park
  • Uluru (Ayers Rock) lookout at Sunset
  • Visit the Uluru-Kata Tjuta cultural center
  • Aboriginal Sacred Rock Art Site 
  • Visit Mutitjulu Waterhole, Kuniya Piti, Kantju Gorge
  • Immerse yourself in Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park
  • Hike the Valley of the Winds or Walpa Gorge
  • The Olgas-Kata Tjuta
  • Visit Tjoritja - West MacDonnell Ranges
  • Explore Standley Chasm, Ochre Pits and Ellery Creek Big Hole

**Day 1: Alice Springs to Uluru / Ayers Rock** Departing from either Alice Springs, we head towards Uluru (Ayers Rock) stopping off at Mt Connor (false Uluru) lookout for a view of this mighty red mountain and Curtin Springs for a toilet stop before arriving at our campground for lunch. After lunch, we head to the Red Centre's indigenous interpretive cultural centre where we have a chance to learn about the cultural, ecological, historical and geological significance of this very special national park. With the anticipation and excitement growing we make a short drive towards the base of Uluru as we begin to comprehend the sheer size and magnificence of the giant monolith, getting up close and personal to explore further. Walking to Mutitjulu waterhole we discover sacred rock art sites in family caves and hear the creation stories of Kuniya and Liru as we continue our base walk towards Kuniya Piti. From here we drive around sacred sites towards Kantju Gorge where we envisage the highest waterfall in Central Australia, (truly a spectacle to behold, even more so when raining) an elders cave and the world's oldest pantry. After exploring the world's most impressive rock up close and personal, we retreat for panoramic views to witness one of the most incredible sunsets on the planet, all whilst having dinner cooked for you, to feed those hungry eyes and allow you to get to know your fellow travellers. **Day 1 Highlights:** - Uluru (Ayers Rock) - Red Centre's cultural centre - Sacred Rock Art Site - Mutitjulu Waterhole - Kuniya Piti - Kantju Gorge - Sunset at Uluru lookout **Meals:** Lunch, Dinner. **Accom:** Uluru Coach Campground - Basic Swags (communal campsite facilities) **Driving Distance:** 350km. **Hike Distance:** 2-3 km / 2-3 hours.

Here we set off on a hike through the Valley of the Winds or Walpa Gorge marvelling at the mighty conglomerate rock formations.

Arriving at the jewel in the crown at the centre of Watarrka National Park (Kings Canyon) we find ourselves surrounded by towering 100-metre cliff faces, views of sandstone chasms and jaw-dropping backdrops that will make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck. Grab your water, hat and sturdy shoes as we set off on foot to explore (the most seasonally applicable part of) the canyon in more detail.

At dawn, we hope to spot the native wildlife as we enjoy breakfast and look forward to the day ahead. Tracking west you are welcome to enjoy a dip in Ellery Creek Bighole, known traditionally as Udepata, surrounded by tall red cliffs and sandy Ellery Creek. Onwards to where massive geological forces created the towering red walls of Ormiston Gorge. Spend time here admiring nature and its finest before we begin our leisurely journey back towards Alice Springs, with our final stop at another amazing feature of the Tjoritja West MacDonnell region, Simpsons Gap, where several dreaming trails and stories cross. Featuring a permanent waterhole this is also a great place to spot resident wildlife.
