The climate in the Northern Territory may be harsh, but its harshness has brought forth undeniable beauty, a ruddy terrain that is unlike any parts of Australia. The Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, a World Heritage-listed site, is a great example of the unique landscape of the area. Featuring red-stained rocks and sand, this area’s highlights are Uluru, a gigantic solitary rising from the desert, and the Kata Tjuta, enormous dome-shaped stones that sit side by side. Kakadu National Park, another World Heritage-listed site, is a destination worth seeing for both its fantastic landscape and its indigenous rock art. Litchfield National Park features fantastic waterfalls, while the Katherine Gorge National Park presents you with a verdant landscape nourished by the Katherine River, providing a stark contrast to the rest of the Northern Territory. Stay at one of these Airbnb vacation rentals in Northern Territory, Australia, so you can explore these natural wonders for yourself.
