The natural heart of Australia, the Northern Territory is where you will find the rich red soil of the outback that is full of unforgettable experiences. This extraordinary landscape will have you traversing desert plains, weathered mountain ranges, rocky gorges and visiting some of Aboriginal Australia's most sacred sites. An oasis in the desert, the Northern Territory is a unique terrain amongst a country of unique terrains and one of the few places you can you experience a true ‘only in Australia’ moment than right here.
The Northern Territory is the most authentic Australian experience. From the natural waterholes and rock formations in the Red Centre to the sprawling wetlands of Kakadu in the north, it is a place of diverse landscapes that really capture the otherworldly feel of Australia. It is a place ripe with adventure and the perfect destination to escape the mundane everyday and connect with the natural world.
The climate of the Northern Territory is a little different to the rest of the states and this is because the land stretches so far between north and south. The north, also known as the Top End, has a tropical climate with two seasons: the Dry (May-Oct) and Wet (Nov-Apr). In the south, the Red Centre, it is an arid climate that follows summer (Dec-Feb), autumn (Mar-May), winter (Jun-Aug) and spring (Sep-Nov) seasons.
There are daily flights that operate between the major destinations of Uluru, Alice Springs and Darwin, while the Airnorth service can take you between the regional centres. If you're looking to take the scenic route, you can hire cars in Darwin, Uluru and Alice Springs, where you can also find local travel options such as bicycle hire, taxis and bus networks.
The iconic Uluru is one of the great natural wonders of the world that promises to take your breath away the moment you see it, especially if you visit during the sunrise or sunset. Connect to one of the oldest cultures on the planet by going on a Territory Art Trail and discover authentic Aboriginal artworks. Heading north opens you up to a whole new perspective with the Kakadu National Park where you can take a cruise along the billabongs and hike through rugged escarpments. Or why not join the party and attend one of the many festivals and events, such as the Beer Can Regatta which will see you building a raft out of beer cans!
The food and drink experience of the Northern Territory is unlike any other with open-air markets and dinner under the stars. In the Top End, places like Darwin and Litchfield will have fresh barramundi and mud crab on the menu, sprinkled in with some Thai, Malaysian and Indonesian influences as well. In the Red Centre, try some authentic Aboriginal bush tucker made from native fruits and berries or dine at a five-star restaurant as you watch the sunset over Uluru.
