We’ve only been away for 2 weeks but feels so much longer -loving it 🥰
The aim today was to drive into the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park to see Kata Tjuṯa in its full glory 🌄. Job done✔️
The site consists of 36 massive rock domes (the Olga’s). Many of the areas are off-limits due to their sacred cultural and spiritual significance to the local Anangu people however you can explore some of the area by foot but photography is not permitted in many of the sensitive sites.
We headed out as the sun was rising over Uluru, casting the most amazing glow onto Kara Tjuta.
The Valley of the Winds was our first hike, a 8.4km grade 4 circuit, with photography of the rock not permitted 📷❌
Our second hike was the Waḻpa Gorge Walk, a 3km grade 3 out and back, which did allow photography📷✔️
The whole area was breathtaking with spectacular colours as the sun hit the rock face. Its sheer size up close made us feel so small and insignificant, but brings a feeling of calm and reflection.
Returned back to the resort and another thunderstorm ⚡️⛈️⚡️- is this normal for this area at this time of year?
Sunset wasn’t as spectacular tonight but at least it wasn’t rainingBaca lagi
