Visit one of the greatest natural wonders of the world, Uluru. Not only
is it a spectacular natural formation, Uluru is a deeply spiritual place.
You can feel a powerful presence the moment you set eyes on it.
At 348 metres high, Uluru is one of the world’s largest monoliths,
towering over the surrounding landscape and some 550 million years old.
In the heart of the Northern Territory you'll find more than 50,000
solar-powered stems crowned with glass spheres lighting up the night's sky.
The magical sight begins to glow at sunset and continues throughout the
night, creating the appearance of a blooming garden in the middle of the
outback. In keeping with the vast scale of the red desert, this is artist
Bruce Munro's largest iteration of the artwork to date, with the brightly
coloured light stems covering an area the size of four football fields.
Must Try
• Traditional Owner, join a camel tour or self-drive
• Dine under a canopy of stars
• Tandem skydives with Skydive Uluru (Ayers Rock).
Getting there
Uluru can be accessed by air with direct flights from major Australian
airports and via
Alice Springs Airport. The Red Centre Way drive is ideal
for those wanting a self-drive adventure or you can join one of many organised tours from Alice Springs.
