Travel further inland and you will enter the indigenous territory of the Aboriginal people of Australia. These tribes date back to pre-history, many carrying on the same traditions and customs from so long ago. This country (did you know it's also a continent?) is the perfect retreat for the outdoorsman looking for ample and challenging rock climbing and hiking as well as the cosmopolitan traveler, interested in sophisticated city life.
