Description

Uluru, or Ayers Rock, is the most iconic attraction in Australia. Steeped in cultural and historical significance, it’s an extremely sacred Australian place. On this 12 km hike, we’ll be lucky enough to get up close to it. Join us on what we think is one of the best hikes in Australia.

This sandstone monolith is thought to have started forming around 550 million years ago and is famous for its distinct colour. We’ll start our hike early in the morning so that you can enjoy the magical experience of watching the sunrise here. Breakfast will also be served during the hike.

We’ll walk the full circumference of the base of Uluru taking in all the flora and fauna of the area. Along the way, your guide will be able to talk you through the importance of Uluru to the indigenous people of Australia. You’ll also learn more about the interesting geology of the monolith and the surrounding land.

Don’t miss this awesome opportunity to get up close to Australia’s Red Centre. Book today!

While you’re in Australia, why not climb Mt Barney in Queensland, we have a great one day trip for that. Check it out!

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
