This is an extraordinary opportunity to experience the Australian Outback under the guidance of Aboriginal Elders, who honour us with an invitation to walk a Dreamtime Trail. “Come to my country, come with an open heart and mind.” As guests in their bush camps, we will learn traditions of the sacred earth. We will be shown indigenous healing practices; share in spiritual ceremonies; and delight in traditional art, music, dance and storytelling. |

Australia is an ancient continent whose vast red distances have been walked for 60,000 years by some of humanity's oldest cultures, the custodial peoples of the Great Dreaming. Companions in this work of looking after the land are Australia's wondrous array of animals, reptiles and birds. Starting from Alice Springs in Australia’s Red Centre, our desert journey takes us first to fabled Uluru (Ayers Rock) and mysterious Kata Tjuta (The Olgas) as preparation for entry to the remote ancestral homeland of the Pitjantjatjara people. |

Here we are accorded the rare privilege of walking for three days along the Creation Songline of Wati Ngintaka, the Giant Perentie Lizard Spirit. Our guides are the initiated guardians of this Tjukurpa, (Dreaming Law), who share their survival skills and ancient knowledge of how to look after the land. Kalipariwa, they say. “Let us come together.” |
