Few are ever prepared for a visit to the Uluru-Kata Tjuta region. Uluru / Ayers Rock is Australia's most recognisable natural icon. Standing 348 metres high, the monolith has a great cultural significance for the traditional Aboriginal owners, the Anangu people. The Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park is located 440 kilometres south-west of Alice Springs near the town of Yulara, and encompasses both Uluru / Ayers Rock and the great rock domes of Kata Tjuta / The Olgas. This ancient landform dates back 500 million years. Travellers visiting the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park can also browse through the informative and award-winning Uluru-Kata Tjuta Cultural Centre.
A range of accommodation from camp sites to five-star luxury is available at the Ayers Rock Resort in the township of Yulara, a small township purpose built to service travellers to the Park. Yulara also offers an airport, and the Yulara Visitors Centre provides information on the history, geology, flora, fauna and culture of this amazing region.
