Adventuring Down Under

The addition came at the cost of losing the Bungle-Bungles of Kimberley, but Uluru — the iconic landmark of the Anangu — is now on the itinerary.

Our flights from Sydney to Yulara, the service village outside the national park, and back to Sydney are booked. As are our accommodations at the Ayers Rock Resort.

We are giving ourselves three full days to explore not just Uluru, but also Kata Tjuta National Park, “… a living cultural landscape where earth and memories exist as one.” Uluru is, in fact, part of the national park, and though it seems to overshadow everything else in the minds of most visitors, there is plenty more to see and experience within the park.

Next up, we need to look at the tour and activity options. And also purchase a park pass. I’ll do so over the next few days.

Oh, and of course, I need to make sure we pack our hat nets … we’re going to need them to keep the pesky flies off our face! Fingers crossed they are not as bad as they can be during the hot Australian summer.Läs mer
