Travel guide to Ayers Rock

The slopes of Ayers Rock

In the centre of the Northern Territory is Uluru - Kata Tjuta National Park is the home of Ayers rock or ‘Uluru’ which is owned by the local aborigines. It is a monolith made from sandstone and is 348m high. It is surrounded by desert grass, oak trees and sand plains, and this enhances seeing it at sunrise or sunset. It is truly breathtaking, when the colour changes almost every minute.

There are many ways to experience Uluru. Weather permitting, climbing it (but the Anangu people prefer you didn’t), bike around, fly over or walk around the base which can take around 3 hours. It is a marvellous experience!

Also in the park is the conglomerates of Kata Tjuta, which means ‘many heads’; 36 rounded domes are divided by valleys and gorges. They are weathered with fragments of the rock found at the base, which shows how the rocks have been compressed together. Many of the viewing platforms are raised to protect the environment.
