Day 1 - Alice Springs
to Kata Tjuta & Uluru
Kick off your adventure on top of a camel! Our first
stop is the Outback Camel Farm where you can choose to ride atop one of these
desert giants (at own expense). From here it's off to Uluru (Ayers Rock), and
a bite to eat. Kata Tjuta will fascinate you, and you will discover some of the
secrets of this ancient landform on the Valley of the Winds hike. You'll be mesmerised
as the desert sun sets over Uluru, and as the night grows darker, curl up in your
swag (Aussie bedroll) under millions of stars. (LD)
Day
2 - Uluru to Kings Canyon
It's an early start this morning, but you'll
be rewarded with a glorious Uluru sunrise. Stretch your legs with a walk around
Uluru's base (unguided), or climb to the top if you choose. You'll deepen your
understanding of the land and its stories at the Cultural Centre. After lunch
we travel to our permanent campsite at Kings Canyon. You'll fall asleep contented
with a delicious camp oven dinner filling your stomach. (BLD)
Day 3 - Kings Canyon to Alice Springs
Get your hiking shoes on today
as we head out to explore the impressive formations which make up Kings Canyon.
You'll be left breathless by the sheer beauty of the canyon as we trek through
the Amphitheatre, the Lost City, the lush and ancient Garden of Eden and the North
and South Walls. Lunch is a welcome prospect, before we make our way back to Alice
Springs. (BL) Overnight dorm accommodation is included. Day
4 - Alice Springs to Banka Banka
We pass by 23° 26? 22? south of the
equator (otherwise known as the Tropic of Capricorn) before stopping at Ti Tree
for the chance to buy original works of art by Indigenous artists. Learn about
the early struggles of bush telecommunications at Barrow Creek's historic Telegraph
Station - it'll make your mobile phone seem like the space age! Precariously balanced
on their rocky perch are the Devils Marbles, a site sacred to its traditional
owners. Last stop for today is our camp at Banka Banka Cattle Station and if the
weather's good, you can take a dip in the pretty waterhole. (LD)
Day 5 - Banka Banka to Katherine Gorge
No visit to the Top End would
be complete without a visit to the famed Daly Waters pub, a quintessential outback
roadhouse and 'watering hole' for travellers from far and wide. The tiny town
is also home to Australia's first international airport (but you wouldn't guess
it!). Mataranka lies in the heart of the 'never-never', and you'll feel a million
miles from anywhere as you soak in the steamy thermal springs. As the day draws
to a close, we reach our overnight camp at stunning Katherine Gorge. (BLD)
Day 6 -
Katherine Gorge to Darwin
The gorge is all yours this morning, with a half day to spend
canoeing or cruising (at own expense) the spectacular waters.
Want to see more? Jump aboard a helicopter flight (at own
expense) which will take you high above the vast gorge system.
We'll head to Darwin after a bite to eat, with stops at idyllic
Edith Falls and the 'croc-filled' Adelaide River (both a town
and a river). (BL)
