Day 1: Alice Springs - Kata Tjuta
(the Olgas)
Travel through the West MacDonnell and James
Ranges . Visit a camel farm for an optional
camel ride (own expense) and later stop to view
majestic Atila ( Mt. Conner ), before arriving
at Ayers Rock Resort. This afternoon tour to
Kata Tjuta where there is time to walk
to the Valley of the Winds lookout. The walking
path is rocky and requires a good level of fitness.

Day 2: Kings Canyon
An early start this morning to drive through
sandhill country to Kings Canyon stopping for
breakfast at Kings Creek Station (own expense)
along the way. Make the rocky climb to the rim
of the canyon to be rewarded with marvellous
views of Watarrka National Park . The climb
may take up to 3 hours and is for those with
a good level of fitness. Alternatively, you
may wish to explore the boulder strewn canyon
floor, an easier walk. After lunch (own expense)
