The heart of outback Australia
Australia’s Red Centre is known for its iconic red desert, towering escarpments and hidden waterholes. In the very heart of Australia, you’ll find a region where you can choose your own adventure - whatever that may be.
The township of Alice Springs is thriving with character and is your base for some of the most extraordinary outback experiences. Just a few hours away you can explore the monumental cultural landmark of Uluru, where you'll find unique things to do to suit any type of traveller.
Uluru aside, you can follow the West MacDonnell Ranges along the Larapinta Trail to see the Red Centre by foot, or jump on a bike and discover why the region has a growing reputation for world-class mountain biking.
