ITINERARY:

DAY 1: We start in Alice Springs, the heart of the Australian Outback. We meet early in the morning at a central location in Alice Springs. From the very first minutes of the drive, you'll discover and enjoy the endless expanses of the Outback. As soon as we leave the city, there's nothing but the Australian desert for miles around – an absolute feeling of freedom :)

After a lunch stop, we reach our first highlight: Kata Tjuta! With over 36 different small hills, Kata Tjuta is unique and unmistakable. Together with our guide, we'll explore the area in detail with a hike lasting approximately two hours. Afterwards, we continue through the desert to our campsite in the middle of the wilderness, where we'll spend our first night under the stars! We'll sleep in swags (extra large, thick sleeping bags that you slip into). There's no tent, so you can admire the incredibly bright starry sky directly from your sleeping spot and experience nature to the fullest.

DAY 2: Another advantage of spending the night outdoors: we can reach Uluru super quickly! And that's exactly what we'll do this morning at sunrise. We'll be among the first to arrive at Australia's most famous mountain, admiring the sacred rock in the red-gold morning light. Watching the mountain slowly transform from darkness into daylight is a unique spectacle!

Our guide will also show us places on Uluru where we can marvel at original Aboriginal murals and give us background information. Afterwards, there's time to walk around Uluru completely (for anyone who wants to! It's not a must). The walk is incredibly easy; it simply goes around the mountain once. You'll meet your guide again at the parking lot by the vehicle. Hiking time today: approximately 2.5-3.5 hours, depending on whether you participate in everything or not.

After a lunch stop, we'll continue to the cultural center, where you can also purchase handmade Aboriginal art as souvenirs. Afterwards, we'll head back to our adventure camp to prepare dinner and light a campfire for tonight.

DAY 3: Today, another major highlight is on our itinerary: Kings Canyon! This spectacular rocky gorge should be a must-see on any Uluru trip. Meter-high red sandstone cliffs, deep ravines, and hidden rock pools, as well as over 600 different plant and animal species, are all there to discover. On a roughly three-hour hike through the area, our guide will show us these highlights (which aren't all that easy to find). We'll also pass the "Lost City," "Garden of Eden," and the "Amphitheater."

After lunch, we'll head back to Alice Springs, where the tour began. You can then disembark again in the evening at a central location in Alice Springs.
