Hotels in Northern Territory, Australia

The Northern Territory spans Australia's central north, from the tropical Top End around Darwin to the desert Red Centre near Alice Springs. It's famous for Uluru's massive sandstone monolith and Kakadu National Park's ancient rock art. The dry winter (May-October, 70-90°F / 20-32°C) is perfect for hiking around Uluru at sunrise or swimming in Kakadu's Gunlom Falls plunge pool. During the wet summer (November-April, 80-95°F / 27-35°C), you'll see lush waterfalls and cheaper flights, but some roads close. Would you rather explore Aboriginal galleries at Nourlangie Rock or watch a sunset over Uluru from the sunset viewing area?
