DAY 5: Wallace Rockhole to Alice Springs
Real 4WD touring today as we drive through Finke Gorge National Park into Palm Valley. Dry riverbeds and uneven tracks make the journey an adventure in itself. The effort is well worth it when you see the park's rough red gorges and view ancient stands of palm trees and cycads. We'll have a picnic and do some hiking here before returning to Alice Springs later in the day, arriving approx. 6.30pm.
A MESSAGE FROM THE ANANGU PEOPLE
Note: Anangu, Uluru's traditional owners, would prefer that visitors choose not to climb Uluru. Furthermore, the climb may be closed without notice due to weather or cultural reasons |
