Description

Untamed Northern Territory Series by Lexa Harpell.

Floral landscape of Kata Tjuta.

Formerly known as The Olgas by Europeans, Kata Tjuta lies around 60kms south of Uluru in the UNESCO Uluru - Kata Tjuta site in Central Australia.

These two magnificent rock formations are visited by millions of tourists from around the world. They rise majestically out of the flat, almost arid landscape bordering deserts.

Most visitors come to see Uluru, a single monolith, with its ever changing colours during the day and easy accessibility. Yet, I found Kata Tjuta far more fascinating, with a strong air of sacredness as you walk through the domes.

Kata Tjuta is made up of 36 domes created from conglomerate rock which are billions and billions of smooth rocks compressed together with sand and soil. It made my head spin to thinking of the enormity of this geological wonder.

Like Uluru, the colours of the domes change throughout the day depending on the light from an undless brilliant blue sky. The colours change from vivid orange to deep purples.

Most of the domes are restricted areas (unlike Uluru) to tourists as many of the domes are highly sacred sites to the Indigenous people of the area.

There is one main walk, through the domes, The Valley of the Winds, which takes a few hours. You find natural gardens and lush trees growing between the folds of these incredible domes.
