Alice Springs to Ayers Rock Self Drive

Self Drive Tours in the Northern Territory, Australia

Day 1: Arrive Alice Springs.
Welcome to "The Alice", gateway to The Red Centre. On arrival, collect your vehicle, and explore the MacDonald Ranges and The Old Telegraph Station. Perhaps this evening pre-reserve a trip to the Red Centre dreaming Dinner and Show.

Overnight All Seasons Oasis Alice Springs

Day 2. Alice Springs to Kings Canyon. (197 miles)

Depart Alice Springs this morning and travel west along Larapinta Drive to Kings Canyon via Standley Chasm (one of the most beautiful sights in the Outback) and Simpsons Gap (a prominent waterhole and at dawn and dusk, a good place to spot black footed wallabies). Spend the late afternoon walking through the base of the Canyon, or for those who are fit why not climb to the rim of the Canyon for spectacular views.
Overnight Kings Canyon Resort (standard room)

Day 3. Kings Canyon to Ayers Rock. (187 miles)

In this region of the Northern Territory, you will be inspired by some of Australia?s most significant natural attractions, the most famous of all being Ayers Rock or Uluru. West of Ayers Rock Resort is Mount Olga, a collection of weathered red domes, the tallest of which stands 200 metres taller than Ayers Rock. At sunset, the Olgas hold their own light show to rival the Rock's - both inspiring, but individually unique. For experienced walkers, the Olgas offer a four to five hour walk through the poetically named Valley of the Winds. For an easier walk with great views taking only an hour or so, go to Olga Gorge (Tatintjawiya).

Overnight Outback Pioneer, Ayers Rock Resort.

Day 4. Ayers Rock.
Perhaps take a morning drive out to the rock and watch the sunrise over this incredible monolith. Drop off your vehicle and continue with your travel plans.
