NT - Great Victorian Desert Cycling Experience (7 days)

What better way to experience the vast expanses of the Great Victoria Desert than a winning combination of cycling and four-wheel-driving. Superb bush camping, a knowledgeable and experienced guide, great food and new friends add to the mix. Cycling towards awe-inspiring Uluru (Ayers Rock) is something you'll always remember.

• Days 1 & 2: Travel through the Eastern Goldfields, visiting the famous mining town of Southern Cross, and cycling into the interesting ghost town of Coolgardie
  
• Days 3 & 4: Trekking across one of the Victoria Desert's tracks, the Tjukayirla Road or the Warburton Track. Parts of this track are known as Len Beadell's 'Gunbarrell Highway'.
  
• Days 5 & 6: Warburton, where we visit the Warburton Arts Centre, nestled between the Gibson and Great Victoria Deserts of Western Australia, in the heart of the Ngaanyatjarra Aboriginal Homelands. We visit Giles Weather Station, one of the world's most remote weather stations, Situated about 750 kilometres west-southwest of Alice Springs, just over the West Australian Border, on the edge of the Gibson Desert, south of the Rawlinson Range.
  
• Day 7: The scenery keeps getting better as we continue east through the Petermann Ranges. We arrive to view the mysterious domes of Kata Tjuta (The Olgas) in the late morning. From here we have only 50 km to go to reach our final destination, Uluru (Ayers Rock). The ultimate reward is cycling towards and around the awesome monolith. We then sit back and enjoy a glass of champagne as the sun sets, admiring the ever-changing colours of Uluru, a sight not to be missed and long remembered.
