Here is the starting point
Alice Springs
On our way to Ayers Rock from Alice Springs, we stop off at the Mt Connor lookout (false Uluru) for a view of the mighty red mountain and Curtin Springs for a toilet stop before turning in to our campground for lunch. Following lunch, we make our way to the Aboriginal cultural centre of the Red Centre. Cultural, ecological, historical, and geological aspects of this park are fascinating to learn about. We are blown away by Uluru's sheer size and magnificence after a short drive, which we are able to experience up close and personal for the first time. We visit sacred rock art sites and hear creation stories of Kuniya and Liru during our base walk to Kuniya Piti. During our journey through Kantju Gorge, we visit sacred sites, the highest waterfalls in Central Australia, an elders' cave, and one of the world's oldest pantry. We retreat to the panoramic viewpoint in the afternoon for one of the most stunning sunsets on earth after seeing the world's largest rock up close and personal.
