Barkly Tableland
Die riesigen Barkly Tablelands erstrecken sich östlich von Tennant Creek bis nach Queensland und bedecken mit mehr als 280.000 Quadratkilometern etwa 20 Prozent der Landmasse des Territoriums.
The Barkly ist bekannt für seine goldenen Wiesen und den weiten blauen Himmel, die ihm das unverwechselbare Gefühl der Weite und Freiheit des Outbacks verleihen.
Riesige Rinderfarmen befinden sich hier in den Tablelands, einige so groß wie europäische Länder, und diese Region ist bekannt für die epischen Rindertriebe vergangener Zeiten, die auf dem Weg nach Queensland durchzogen wurden.
Eine der größten Veranstaltungen im Kalender dieser Region sind die Brunette Downs Races, ein Buschrennen, das im Juni auf einer Station 350 Kilometer nordöstlich von Tennant Creek stattfindet.Besucher fliegen aus ganz Australien zu dem viertägigen Buschrennen ein, das einen ausgeprägten Outback-Geschmack hat.
Das Barkly Homestead an der Kreuzung der Highways Barkly und Tablelands ist das einzige Servicezentrum in den Tablelands und bietet eine willkommene Abwechslung auf der langen Fahrt von oder nach Queensland.

Come sunrise and sunset, the #DevilsMarbles are the perfect spot to seek solitude, when the sun drenches the outback landscape in a blanket of orange, yellow and red 😍 Karlu Karlu, as the boulders are called by the Aboriginal traditional owners, were formed naturally, slowly eroding over millions of years into their strange and sometimes gravity-defying shapes. Wander the reserve’s walkways, where you’ll find granite boulders up to 6 metres tall scattered throughout the valley. These geological wonders are located just an hour south of #TennantCreek.

The impeccably balanced ancient granite boulders at #KarluKarlu | #DevilsMarbles Conservation Reserve look like they've dropped from the wide blue skies of the Barkly Tablelands, just 95-kilometres south of #TennantCreek 💙 Formed over millions of years on the lands of the Warumungu people, the boulders continue to crack and erode making for a unique view each time you visit.

Devils Marbles ✅ 😈 Once onto the long and monotonous Stuart Highway, this is one of the only highlights on the way down to Uluru! These 'marbles' were once pushed up from the earth's crust!! They began rectangular and after erosion has formed them into round boulders!! So... in the middle of nowhere you can now see a random pile of perfectly shaped marbles! #tickingtheboxes #devilsmarbles #stuarthighway #uluru #outback #australianoutback #australia #drydesert #rock #rockformation #earthscrust #science #travelingaustralia #theexploresway #crazynature #livingthedream #centerofaustralia #redcentre

Devils marbles . . . Scrolling through some pictures from the NT from September last year and thought I'd group these couple of images. Still amazes us how blown away we were by how these rock. Google history 😂 The Devils Marbles are a sacred site known as Karlu Karlu in the language of the traditional owners the Warumungu people. Formed over millions of years, they continue to crack and erode making for a unique view each time you visit. Take your time to explore the region's most famous landmark. . . . #rocks #hikingphotography #hikingtrip #hikinglover #hiking4fun #hikinggram #hiking_daily #outback #hikingtrails #hikingadventure #northernterritory #devilsmarbles #hiking_my_life #rock #hike #landscape #lovehiking #hikingday #tourismtopend #australia_shotz #ausadventureguides #raw_community_member #natureaustralia #exquisitepics20_australia #exquisitpics20 #exquisitpics20_yourpics #hikeaustralia #takeahike #takeahikeaustralia #hiddengemsaustralia

Sticking to our plans and getting up before sunrise! The early morning sun turns all the rocks bright red! It's like walking around an art exhibit. Devil's Marbles / Karlu Karlu has an interesting history, from multiple massacres of the Aboriginal people to finally being reinstated as Aboriginal land. We are happy that we get to share the space and look forward to enjoying many more of the special places our country has to offer.. . . . . #travel #northernterritory #northernterritoryaustralia #australia #outback #travelcouple #4x4 #landcruiser #biglap #touring #overlanding #toyota #adventure #travel #biglap #camping #exploring #swimming #alicesprings #vanlife #rooftoptent #travelaustralia #travelnorthernterritory #nt #trip #roadtrip #ntaustralia #alicespringsnt

The Path Tennant Creek | NT | Australia I was looking back through raw images I captured last year, and this one caught my eye.

Sunset Moonlight Tennant Creek | NT | Australia Repost from back in May 2022, the sun had just set, and the warm golden light was starting to fade, replaced by the cooler blue hour colours in the sky.
