Activities, Excursions of Ayers Rock (Australia).

Australia is the country/continent "down-under". It is completely surrounded by water and - except for the coastal regions - a huge desert (Red Center). Main tourist attractions are the Great Barrier Reef (Cairns), the Great Ocean Road, Ayers Rock (Alice Springs), Sydney and all the magnificent wildlife (in particular birds and reptiles). Melbourne is very sport oriented and Tasmania is proud to have the "best air". Having a BBQ on the beach on Christmas day is normal in Australia, but quite special to most northern visitors.

Uluru (Ayers Rock) is a huge monolyte. Only 10% is above ground, the rest is below. The Rock is sacred for the original inhabitants of Australia - the Aboriginals. Since October 2019 it is no longer possible to climb to the top.
