Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park is home to more than 400 different plants, including several rare species.

The park’s vegetation ranges from eucalypt woodlands to spinifex grasslands and supports a huge variety of wildlife.

Many of these plants have cultural importance as a source of food, tools, medicine and fuel for Traditional Owners.

To help preserve and care for the fragile environment at Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park, we ask that all visitors keep to marked tracks and do not walk through or over vegetation. We also ask visitors not to break branches, flowers, or fruit off trees or plants.
