Uluru/Kata Tjuta, NT.

Driving to Uluru (Ayers Rock) from the south we had the experience I’m sure many have… the “is that it?” “it can’t be” “it looks like it” “we’re too far away” discussion- I’ll call it the Mount Conner conundrum!

It really is true when they say no photo can ever do Uluru justice. Everyone has seen pictures, we’ve included our own here, but nothing comes close to experiencing the amazement you feel as you catch the first glimpses on the horizon and then get close enough to see it fill your field of vision.

We got up early to beat the crowds and rode bikes around the rock as the sun rose. 🌞 That night we headed out after sunset to see the Field of Light. Another amazing experience that also cannot be accurately captured on our iPhone cameras.

The next day we headed out to Kata Tjuta (The Olgas) and did the Valley of the Winds walk. This was a grade 4 hike that had steep, rocky sections but it is such a unique place you accept the difficult terrain for the pay off you get back with the view.

Biking around Uluru and hiking around Kata Tjuta… our favourite things of this trip so far!
