What you’ll do

A road trip along the Red Centre Way from Alice Springs to Uluru is an epic adventure through the West MacDonnell Ranges, Kings Canyon and the iconic Uluru Kata Tjuta National Park.

I absolutely love the Australian outback so much that I have done this road trip three times. There is something truly magical about this place that keeps me coming back. After experiencing it multiple times I have found that 6 days is the perfect amount of time to see all the main attractions in the Red Centre. This itinerary covers the absolute highlights from Alice Springs to Uluru that you will not want to miss. There is a lot of driving involved with many stops spread out across the desert but that is all part of the adventure.
