Walking/Trekking Holidays

Ayers Rock.


You may have seen hundreds of pictures and thousands of post cards featuring Ayers Rock in the Northern Territory of Australia, but nothing compares to walking the base of this sandstone creation. If you and your family are fairly hardy, you can let the cares of the world slip away as you tour this World Heritage site.

Take a camel into the desert and experience this ancient land in much the same way as the native ancestors did.

Australia is a unique location and probably one of the last places on earth where you can walk among rocks that boast a 300 million year history. Many people head for the beach or other touristy locations, but for the nature enthusiasts or those who prefer a trekking holiday over theme parks Australia's Northern Territory has a lot to offer.

In order to get the most out of this type of vacation in Australia it is important that you visit during the right seasons. During the rainy season streams that you could raft and trails you could hike are impassable. A visit to the Northern Territory is best done during the dry season, which is April- May or October.
