Places we visited on the way to Uluru Cobar Broken Hill Silverton Flinders Ranges National Park Coober Pedy Breakaway Reserve Rainbow Valley Trefina Gorge Alice Springs Simpson Gap Stanley Chasm Elwery Creek Serpentine Gorge Ormiston Gorge Kings Canyon Uluru Olgaz on the way back we came through Mildura Uoga and returned to Sydney But let's start from the beginning The first city is the city of Cobar rich in mining heritage and natural attractions There are open-pit mines worth visiting It is known for copper and gold mining The next town Broken Hill is the oldest mining town in the outback with a history dating back to 1880 You can see a desert landscape mining history art galleries museums and much more here Silverton is 37 km from Broken Hill and currently fewer than 50 people live here It was once a vibrant home for thousands of people And nearby is a campsite for visiting tourists The next stop is Flinders Ranger Park National There are 10 designated campsites in the park The Flinders Ranger is the most beautiful area I have ever seen Rugged mountain ranges dramatic canyons calm streams and abundant wild nature This is just the beginning of what awaits us in one of South Australia's most popular tourist spots Then we go to the town of Coober Pedy which is known as the opal capital of the world We stop by Lakehart Lake on the way Which is a dry salt lake with a great campsite on the shore We visit the underground museum in Coober Pedy where opals were mined Then we enter the underground chapel and head 25 kilometers to the Breakaway Reserve park We are driving along the fence that is several thousand kilometers long to block the Dingo's path The park has colorful hills covered with undulating plains Visiting the park at sunrise or sunset shows the landscape's spectacular changing colors The next stop is at the Rainbow Valley campsite We drove 10 kilometers on a real dirt road but we arrived Rainbow Valley's colorful rocks are illuminated in the early morning and late afternoon Offering spectacular views and is well known for its vibrant sandstone cliffs which have been given a European name We are going to Trefin Nature Park which is known for its clean quartz cliffs Camping is large and charming The two most popular activities in the park are camping and hiking There are several hikes in the Trefi Valley that are worth doing during your stay ranging from short and easy walks to longer day hikes We are leaving Trefin Gorge and heading to visit the next gorges We pass by a short gorge named Emil Gep We are driving through the city of Alice Springs and arrive at Simpson's Gap which is considered one of the more prominent ones Because we are in a hurry we are touring this place in a rush whose shapes and surroundings are compact and certainly deserve more attention We are going to Stanley Chasm where we will spend the night camping Stanley Chasm is considered a significant cultural icon of Central Australia The first access to the rock face is along a well-maintained trail Another trail is Doeller Creek Big Hole This is one of the most popular and picturesque camping spots for hiking and swimming Jeziorko is perfect for swimming especially in the warmer months However swimmers should be aware that the water can sometimes be extremely cold The next direction is to Serpentine Gorge A walk to the viewpoint takes about 20 minutes and is quite steep in some parts Just over a kilometer of walking along the stream bed to the gully Where is the water tank located between the two massive canyon walls then a steep climb to the observation po From above there is a magnificent view making the climb worth it The last campsite on this route is Wombus Olmiston whose campsite is classified as a category C campsite I offer gas grills toilets and showers This is a great place for walking camping and swimming Kemping Drive In is available for all types of vehicles and camping trailers The hiking trail in these mountains was easy and the views were great We are going to Kings Canyon which is one of the best places for hiking in the area Kings Canyon rises 270 meters above sea level It is located in the heart of the Australian Red Centre To get to the edge of the canyon you have to climb 500 stairs to reach the top We spend one night at the campsite The spacewalk begins with a difficult bolt and ascends to the top of the canyon Kings Canyon Park has many canyons waterfalls and peaks The canyon is almost entirely composed of sedimentary rocks called sandstones The rugged peaks and canyons of Kings Canyon make it an exciting place for hiking offering spectacular views of the landscape from red rocks We are going to Uluru Along the way we stop to take pictures of the red colored views We are entering the local campsite We finally arrive at Uluru at is Ayers Rock a massive sandstone monol which is famous around the world for its spectacular sunrises and sunsets You can walk around Uluru in about 9 km and relax at the quiet waterholes No matter what you do here don't miss the sunrise or sunset Uluru is one of the most sacred landmarks in Australia but near it is another natural wonder the Olgas which is a group of large dome-shaped rock formations so we are going to visit this place Since this is the end of our journey let's bravely send the entire route from start to finish The views were great as before and we took a lot of pictures I'm back in Sydney this time through Mildura and Lago Bye
