Best Hikes and Walks in the Red Centre
As the sun graces the horizon in the Red Centre, a plethora of unforgettable walks and hikes await.
“A 15-minute taster takes in Uluru and Kata Tjuta, while a longer 36-minute ride offers a more in-depth experience.”
The pilot asks to keep watch for herds of donkeys or camels roaming the landscape, and before long it’s time to come back to earth, with the heli landing neatly and apparently effortlessly within landing lines.
For many guests at Longitude 131° a visit to the World Heritage-listed natural icons of Uluru-Kata Tjuta is the perfect excuse to take their first-ever helicopter ride, and there are a number of heli tour options available.
A 15-minute taster takes in Uluru and Kata Tjuta, while a longer 36-minute ride offers a more in-depth experience. A popular option is to take a heli ride as departure tour, neatly flying over ground recently explored and landing at the airport. The team at Longitude 131° wait with luggage to check in to departure flights and a take-away packed lunch, a last taste of Longitude 131°.
Journeys further afield include a flight out to Mount Conner, to the shimmering pink salts of Lake Amadeus, to the majestic Kings Canyon or to the Ernabella Indigenous community and art centre.
Guests are best advised to bring a camera, a sense of adventure and to be prepared for an unforgettable experience of Uluru-Kata Tjuta by air.
