If the ‘Ochre Pits’ sounds like the ‘pits’ to you, you’re wrong! I have to be honest, when one of our group on this trip to the Red Centre said they particularly wanted to stop off at the Ochre Pits, in the MacDonnell Ranges west of Alice Springs, my heart didn’t particularly sing 😉 Scanning […]
The colour contrasts in Standley Chasm This was my favourite image of Standley Chasm when we visited. Just 50km west of Alice Springs in the MacDonnel Ranges, Central Australia. There is so much more to see in the Red Centre than just Uluru and Kata Tjuta I need to return! What places have you been too and […]
I love travelling by camperbus… or is it called a campervan, or even a motorhome?! I’m not sure what the exact difference is? (If you know do tell in the comments below!) But the bit I love the most about travelling this way is when you feel a tad peckish, a tiny bit thirsty or […]
Kata Tjuta Sunset ~ Photo of the Week Having walked up Walpa Gorge late in the afternoon we retreated from the heart of Kata Tjuta to watch the setting sun turn the domes a deep rusty red, as a pure white full moon hovered in the deepening blue sky. Have you been to Kata Tjuta? Or […]
Walpa Gorge Walk My first glimpse of Kata Tjuta was when watching the sunrise on Uluru. My eye was drawn away from the main spectacle directly in front of me to the horizon where, 50 km away across the spinifex and desert oaks plain, Kata Tjuta’s 36 domes vied for attention. It was much later in the day, […]
Mala Walk to Kantju Gorge, Uluru Having watched a stunning sunset when I first laid eyes on Uluru, followed by a superb sunrise viewed from the south side; experienced my first up-close encounter on the Kuniya Walk (where I discovered there are waterholes at Uluru), we made our way back around to the north side […]

Kuniya Walk to Mutitjulu Waterhole, Uluru Privy to a glorious sunset over ‘the’ Rock on the first day I set eyes on Uluru, we were up early the next morning to see the sunrise from the other side. We left our beds with the stars still twinkling in the black sky overhead and joining a […]

After a 3am start to get to the airport for a 5am lift off to Uluru, we left the coastal humidity of Brisbane and flew into Australia’s heart – the Red Centre. Peering down onto the scrubby outback and gouged channel country from 35,000 feet we flew over flooded Lake Eyre and sparkling salt pans […]
