3 Day Uluru Kata-Tjuta Kings Canyon (Camping) - from Alice Springs

The 3 day/2 night tour of the Red Center was spectacular. Our tour guide Sheeana was amazing!!! She was so informative, full of energy the entire time, and very accommodating. We weren’t able to fully climb certain hikes, so she modified our experience. It was so good to not feel pressured to go over our physical limitations and have a guide to tell us details about everything we were seeing. The camps were beyond expectation. We aren’t really camping people, so we were nervous about what we were getting ourselves into. The private tents were comfy, the showers and toilets were not scary at all, and we had electricity to charge phones in the main common area. It was perfect for groups, couples, or individuals that aren’t heavily experienced outdoors people. We highly recommend this tour!

This trip was everything we hoped for, and more. Our guides, Anna, Ella & Lilly, are passionate and knowledgeable about the environment, indigenous culture, flora and fauna of the area; and even the stars in the night sky. They were friendly and helpful and made this a truly enjoyable experience for us. They also produced amazing meals! The campsites were well organised and we had fun with a group of like-minded walkers. What a way to see a stunningly beautiful part of the country! So many highlights but the night-time walk up Mt Sonder to view the sunrise at the top was fantastic!

In the heart of Australia’s red centre lies one of the greatest, most iconic natural wonders of the world, Uluru (Ayers Rock), an enormous sandstone rock formation located in the Uluru–Kata Tjuta National Park in the vast southern region of the Northern Territory.

World Heritage Listed Uluru

Despite its remote outback destination , the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park is one of Australia’s top tourist destinations . It attracts more than 400,000 visitors annually arriving to Alice Springs or Yulara for a tour experience. Assigned as a World Heritage Site in 1987 and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994, Uluru has been a sacred site and held special cultural and spiritual significance for the Pitjantjatjara, the indigenous custodians of the region, also known as the Anangu, for over 30,000 years.

Join an Uluru adventure and visit the world’s Largest Monolith

The landmark started forming over 550 million years ago due to changes in climatic conditions and the shifting of tectonic plates within the earth’s crust. The spectacular red colour of the rock is a result of the oxidation of iron-rich minerals rusting in the desert air over hundreds of thousands of years. The sandstone, composed with a high proportion of feldspar and quartz, changes colour throughout the day and is particularly striking at sunrise and sunset as the sun’s position amplifies the sandstone into an intense burnt orange and brilliant crimson red colour.

Uluru is considered an inselberg and is one of the world’s largest monoliths. It takes approximately 3 hours to walk around the rock and the sheer size of it is guaranteed to blow your mind. With so many sights and things to learn we strongly recommend a guided Uluru tour around the base. The enormous homogenous rock towers 348 metres high, rising 863 metres above sea level and stretching out 3.6 km long and 1.9km wide, with experts predicting it could also extend anywhere from 2.5 – 6kms underground.

Colonial History

In 1873 William Gosse, a colonial explorer, became the first non-Aboriginal person to see Uluru and named it Ayers Rock in honour of Sir Henry Ayers, the Chief Secretary of South Australia at the time. The two names, Ayers Rock and Uluru, have been used ever since. In 1985, the Australian government rightfully returned ownership of Uluru to the local Pitjantjatjara people under an agreement that it would be leased back to the National Parks and Wildlife Agency for 99 years and mutually managed.

The unnaturally smooth surface of Uluru is a result of the thousands of people who have climbed the rock over the years despite ongoing objections and requests from the Anangu people. The Anangu consider themselves protectors of the rock and any visitors to their country. Climbing is strictly forbidden due to the essential cultural and spiritual significance of the site, and it was eventually closed to the public and made illegal in 2019.

Uluru is a sacred Aboriginal site

Surrounded by an abundance of freshwater springs, gullies, waterholes, sacred caves, rock paintings and home to a diversity of native flora and fauna, this ancient oasis has been crucial to the survival of indigenous people and the many desert-dwelling animals in the region. Many caves and crevices around the base are reserved for sacred men’s or women’s rituals and ceremonies. For these reasons, the Aṉangu request that visitors do not photograph certain sections of Uluru.

Whilst much of the Tjukurpa (religious philosophy and creation stories) is kept private for the Anangu people, it’s strongly believed that the rock was formed through a creation and destruction process by creator beings referred to as Tjukuritja or Waparitja and that Uluru itself is a living being and resting place for ancestral spirits.

Going on a road trip to Uluru is an adventure in itself, but the excitement doesn’t stop upon reaching the destination . Uluru offers a wealth of experiences for travellers of all kinds. Whether you are an outdoor enthusiast or a culture buff, there’s something for everyone.

Here are some of the top activities to experience in Uluru , no matter what type of traveller you are:

Mala Walk : Take a peaceful sunset walk to explore ancient campsites, caves, and rock art. Sit by the reservoir in the Cantu Gorge and watch the sunset at the foot of the giant rock.

Field of Light : Marvel at the Field of Light display illuminates the desert with bright lights that seem to stretch on forever. This man-made wonder is a must-see attraction that allows you to uniquely marvel at Uluru’s incredible starry skies.

Sound of Silence: This award-winning event showcases the best of the Red Centre in a four-hour dining extravaganza. After watching the sunset, you’ll enjoy a delicious meal with dishes made with native ingredients. Relax as you listen to the didgeridoo and stargaze with the help of a star expert, who will guide you through the southern night sky.

Uluru Cultural Centres : This is a must-visit for anyone interested in learning about the history and traditions of the Anangu people, who are the traditional owners of Uluru tours . You can explore their vibrant traditional art and discover how they have lived sustainably in the desert for thousands of years. The centre also offers various educational programs, cultural activities, and workshops, giving visitors a unique opportunity to engage with the Anangu people and their rich culture.

One of the most iconic things you can see in a tour of Australia’s red centre is World Heritage listed Uluru, or Ayers Rock. Whether you’re watching the sunset at dusk or rising early to see first light pour over the stunning desert landscape, there’s no escaping this place’s magic. Uluru is also deeply significant to the Anangu people, the traditional Aboriginal owners of the region, and taking a tour of the red centre will teach you things about this ancient culture you wouldn’t learn anywhere else.

One of the most iconic things you can see in a tour of Australia’s red centre is World Heritage listed Ulu r u, or Ayers Rock.

Ulu r u is also deeply significant to the A n angu people, the traditional Aboriginal owners of the region, and taking a tour of the red centre will teach you things about this ancient culture you wouldn’t learn anywhere else. 40 kilometres west of Ulu r u is Kata Tju t a (The Olgas), which is another culturally significant geological formation in the region – 36 rock domes that have weathered for more than 500 million years.

You’ll also want to take a tour of Alice Springs, a town with a significant history as being established by early explorers who built a repeater station along the Overland Telegraph line in 1872 to relay messages from Darwin to Adelaide. There’s also Australia’s largest Aboriginal art gallery, Alice Springs Desert Park and camel rides into Palm Valley.

To the west of Alice Springs, you can take a tour of Kings Canyon, an enormous rock chasm 270 metres deep. Here you’ll be amazed by the wildlife that takes shelter from the harsh desert environment. Or alternatively, if you’ve got the energy, a guided climb around the canyon rim will give you incomparable views of Watarrka National Park.
