The Olgas

The day after visiting the rock we headed out to have a look at the Olgas or Kata Tjuta as they are known. They lie about 50km west from Yulara and are in the same National Park.



There was a 10km walk all up in and around the Olgas and the scenery was spectacular. It's basically a collection of massive red rocks, kind of like mini Uluru's everywhere. The walk took us on a loop through the first set and out to the back for more scenery.

The weather has been kind to us here during our stay with dry days and about 30 celsius. The flys are in plague proportions at the moment and can get a little annoying, Tracey ended up wearing a fly net all day because they were so bad!



We are out of Yulara tomorrow and onto Kings Canyon, a small detour to the North West as you head back up the Lasseter Highway towards the Stuart Highway. Kings Canyon in supposed to be great as well.

Until then viewers............




Ps. As you can see I am playing with the panoramic stitching software that came with the camera. Sometimes the lens is not wide enough to capture the vastness of the scenery. Hope you like them.
