Anangu welcome you to Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, a living cultural landscape where earth and memories exist as one. 

The cultural landscapes of Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park resonate with meaning. They contain Tjukurpa (creation stories in local Pitjantjatjara language) and the associated knowledge of law, relationships, plants, and animals, all of which live in the features of the land. 

From mystical waterholes at the base of Uluru to the rock art wall paintings of the Anangu teachers, the National Park walking tracks are the ideal way to explore the living features of the park.

Ayers Rock Resort operates in a delicate environment where much of the flora and fauna is unique to the region and protected by law. Due to the ever-changing climate we live and operate in, a variety of insects, small animals, and reptiles may be seen around the Resort, including mice, dingoes, snakes, insects, and centipedes. When exploring Ayers Rock Resort and the National Park, the easiest way to keep yourself and our beautiful wildlife safe is to always remain on footpaths and designated walking tracks.
