Overnight Uluru Adventure (Yulara to Yulara)

Day 1: Yulara/ Kata Tjuta/ Uluru Uluru is the heart of Australia and represents so much about this country; its size, its beauty and its culture. Shortly after you arrive, the unmistakable Uluru will emerge from the earth as one giant boulder. Only a short drive awa, you'll be able to walk off your lunch at Kata Tjuta (The Olga's). With its 36 various-sized domes, it provides quite a contrast to Uluru. You'll get to know the landscape pretty well on an afternoon hike between the domes. As the evening unfolds, enjoy a light snack as the sun slowly sets casting a variety of earthy tones across Uluru. The perfect end to a remarkable day is awaiting you back at camp, as you enjoy a delicious spread of food with your group. If the weather permits, sit outside under the stars. Accommodation: Powered camp (with shared facilities) (1 night) Meals Included: Dinner

Day 2: Uluru Sunrise An early start this morning is rewarded with an Uluru sunrise as the sun hits the icon like a beacon, before the light floods the surrounding landscape. Your guide will take you to one of the significant cultural sights of Uluru, outlining Anangu rock art and passing on one of the creation stories of the site. While the morning is fresh, the time is yours to enjoy the self-guided, full base walk of Uluru, taking in all of the textures and valleys up-close, which isn't evident from afar. Notes: Please do not book a flight departing prior to 12:30pm Included Activities Uluru Base Walk Meals Included Breakfast Special Information Total driving time today is around 1 hour. Total walking time is approximately 2.5 hours (or up to 3.5 if you do the full 10km base walk). Uluru is considered a living cultural landscape and home to the spirits of the ancestors making it a sacred place for the Anangu peoples. The Anangu people have dissuaded visitors from climbing Uluru for decades; as traditional owners of the land they feel a deep responsibility for everyone who travels to the area. In 1998, Adventure Tours Australia were among the first tour operators to stop climbing Uluru. We are proud to be involved with local communities in Uluru, and to have an ongoing commitment in contributing to employment for the Anangu people.
