Australia Northern Territory Blog

Witness Mother Nature’s powers at their best. The Northern Territory weather in February is hot and humid in the Top End, with chances of sensational thunderstorms and lightning. The Red Centre is calmer but even the desert has a (small) chance of rain. If you’re lucky enough to catch one of these rainy days, you get to watch waterfalls running off Uluru and wildflowers turning the red sand into a colourful wildflower palette. 

Nature in the Northern Territory comes to life in the month of January. The Top End experiences high humidity with impressive Thunderstorms (and the occasional Cyclone). And even the usually dry Red Centre can see a few rainy days in an otherwise hot summer. 

Uluru tops the bucket list for many travellers, but how do you get to it and why can't you climb it? Read our guide to Australia's (literal) biggest attraction.
