Uluru

Uluru / Ayers Rock

Sacred monolith of sandstone and spirit.

Overview
Uluru (Ayers Rock) is Australia’s spiritual heart—a colossal sandstone formation rising from the red desert floor. Sacred to the Anangu people, it’s a place of powerful energy, ancestral stories, and awe-inspiring natural beauty. Visitors are invited to connect respectfully with this World Heritage-listed site, both through cultural insight and quiet wonder.

See and Do

The local favourite
Witness Uluru at sunrise or sunset, when the colours shift from deep crimson to gold, and silence fills the desert air. Take in the award winning Field of Light sunrise.

A scene of pure natural beauty
Walk the 10.6km Base Track to discover waterholes, caves, and rock art that tell stories thousands of years old.

Adventures in nature
Cycle around the rock, take a guided walk with an Indigenous ranger, or venture further to Kata Tjuta’s domed formations. Walk the Valley of the Winds at Walpa Gorge, you may even find wildflowers in bloom.
