In the Red Centre of Australia you find The Olgas or Kata Tjuta which means place of many heads. These are a group of 28 rounded hills resembling domes, 27 km west of Uluru. Mt. Olga itself rises 545.4 m above the surrounding plain, so it is actually higher (197.3 m higher) than Uluru. Like Uluru the Olgas are made of sedimentary rock conglomerate, with iron oxide impurities.

Valleys and canyons near the Olgas  

Take a walk through the Valley Of The Winds (approx. 2 hours). Deep canyons, small valleys and creeks make it a little paradise which is fascinating to explore. Don't forget to carry some drinking water.

 

A few kilometres before Kata Tjuta there is a parking place with a prospect platform and a little road which takes you above deep red dunes. On the way you'll find many interesting explanations about the flora and fauna of this particular region.

Last but not least, the sunsets at Kata Tjuta are spectacular, with dusky blues and purples to fierce oranges and reds that light up the sky.

So get yourself a nice bottle of australian wine and enjoy.
