Itinerary
Join your Guide on a 10.5 kms hike around the entire base of Uluru. Along the way, enjoy a light breakfast as you begin to absorb the enormity and beauty of your surroundings. Beginning at Kuniya Piti, a sacred site, hear the Tjukurpa story (beliefs and law of Anangu, the local Aboriginal people) of the Mala Men. Continue anti-clockwise around Uluru to the Mala Walk, one of the most important habitation areas for the local Aboriginal people over thousands of years. The Mala Walk includes a visit into Kantju Gorge, where after rainfall, water can cascade over the side of Uluru and plunge some 90 metres. After a short break continue to the Lungkata Walk where your Guide will tell you the Tjukurpa story of the cheeky Blue Tongue Lizard! Next stop is the Mutitjulu Waterhole, once an important water source for the Anangu. Your Guide will indicate the natural features of the landscape, as well as Aboriginal rock art, and relay more traditional stories relating to this special place. Finally return to Kuniya Piti and board your coach for the short drive to Ayers Rock Resort
