In the last 3 weeks I experienced a completely different side of Australia far away from the coast line. Between freezing my butt off with 0 degrees in some nights and sweating like crazy on some days with 40 degrees the Outback was very diversified, even though it was mainly about red sand, big rocks and desert…

Starting the trip from Townsville (QLD) towards Alice Springs (NT) in the center of Australia (2.500 km) we passed quite a few little towns like Hughenden, Cloncurry, Mount Isa and Tennant Creek, saw the first famous rocks - the Devil’s Marbles - and lots of wildlife like bugs, birds, cattle, camels and kangaroos (dead or alife…).

From Alice Springs we traveled  1.500 km in a triangle to Ayers Rock (Uluru), the Olgas (Kata Tjuta) and Kings Canyon (Watarrka)….

…and from there head north another 1.500 km on Stuart Highway along Aileron, Daly Waters,Mataranka and Kathine up to Darwin. 

On the journey we put up our tent in the most beautiful National Parks like Elsey and Nitmiluk (except of Kakadu National Park which was the most disapointing Park ever!!!)  

All together it was lots of driving, lots of dust, lots of Aboriginals and lots of nothing but it was also lots of experience, lots of fun and definitely worth it!!!
