Uralte Landschaften, einladende Naturpools und weite Wüstenebenen verbinden die drei Giganten des Northern Territorys – Uluru, Kata Tjuta und Kings Canyon.

Mächtig sind die berühmten Felsformationen Uluru, Kata Tjuta und Kings Canyon. Das wird einem erst richtig bewusst, wenn man sie zu Fuß erkundet. Generell ist das Rote Zentrum ein Paradies zum Wandern, führen die Wege doch meist durch atemberaubende Landschaften, durch die Stille des Outbacks und zu erfrischenden Bade-Spots.

Spazieren & Wandern rund um den Uluru

Walk through the domes of Kata Tjuta

Take a walk to experience Kata Tjuta, 36 steep domes 50km from Uluru. Kata Tjuta means ‘many heads’ in the local Aboriginal language. Choose from three established walking trails, including the renowned Valley of the Winds walk, a 7.4km circuit that takes in two spectacular lookouts and goes into the heart of Kata Tjuta.

Get the full panorama on the easy 600m walk to the dune viewing area or take the 2.6km return Walpa Gorge Walk past rare plants to a spearwood grove.

The Giles Track

One of Central Australia’s most popular overnight walks is the Giles Track. Located in the Watarrka National Park, this 22km trail travels between Kings Canyon and Kathleen Springs.

Incredible views await those who tackle both the overnight and short walk options, including the cooling waterholes at the Garden of Eden and views of Kings Canyon.

Kings Canyon Rim Walk

Rise early to tackle the 3.5-hour rim walk of Kings Canyon, a 150m-tall sandstone bluff in the Watarrka National Park, 300km from Uluru. The challenging 500-step climb rewards you with views from the summit over lush forests and waterholes before you descend into the green ‘Garden of Eden’ in the belly of the canyon.

Or take the shady, easier creek walk through the canyon floor.
