Visit Uluru and experience the many experiences the national park has to offer.

Uluru is a remarkable part of Australia where you can immerse yourself in Anangu culture and learn about the area’s rich heritage and natural beauty. Whether you’re spending a couple of days or just one, you’ll have the opportunity to try at least one of these five unique activities.

1. Taste bush tucker

For thousands of years, the Anangu people thrived in the national park, relying on its resources for food, water, medicine, and shelter. At the Arkani Theatre, you can participate in a bush food experience, learning about and tasting the local bush tucker.

2. Segway around Uluru

Instead of walking the Uluru Base Walk, consider renting a Segway for a unique and faster way to explore. Join a guided tour during the day or opt for a sunrise or sunset Segway ride around the Red Rock.

3. Scenic flight 

See Uluru from a different perspective with a scenic flight by helicopter or plane. Choose from various flight options including short flights, sunset, or full day to admire the stunning landscape of the national park.

4. Ride a camel

Embark on a distinctive camel ride through the Red Desert. Enjoy experiences such as sunrise and sunset camel rides, or daytime outings. If riding isn’t for you, visit the Uluru Camel Farm, the largest in Australia, and spend time with these gentle animals.

5. Walk through the Field of Light

Originally a temporary exhibit, the Field of Light is now a permanent attraction not to be missed in Uluru. As night falls, witness the breathtaking sight of 50,000 radiant frosted glass spheres illuminating the red desert.

Whether you choose one of these activities or opt for a guided tour of Uluru, you’re sure to have an unforgettable experience. Uluru is a truly extraordinary destination in Australia that merits a visit at least once in a lifetime.
