Update to Park Passes for entry to national parks from 1 January 2021 | Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park

Thursday 10 December 2020

Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park has reopened to visitors, however, several road closures remain in place due to water over the road in a number of locations. Visitors and tourism operators may re-enter the park, but are advised to proceed with caution and drive slowly through any water on the road.

National park staff, in coordination with local agencies, are actively monitoring conditions and implementing road closures to ensure visitor safety.

The following roads remain closed until further notice:

Uluṟu Ring Road between the Mala Carpark and Muṯitjulu Turn Off
Access road to Muṯitjulu Waterhole.

Muṯitjulu residents, staff and workers can continue to enter community with access via the southern road only.

Conditions will be reassessed at 9 am ACST on 17 March with an update provided shortly after.

The Australian Government’s fee waiver period for Booderee, Kakadu and Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Parks is coming to a close on 31 December 2020.

For visits from 1 January 2021, visitors will need to purchase a park pass to enter Booderee, Kakadu and Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Parks.

Your park pass helps us maintain the park’s facilities, preserve its cultural and natural values and support Traditional Owners and their community.

From 1 January, we’re also introducing a new park use fee structure for Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park as follows:

$38 adult three-day park pass
$50 adult annual pass
$109 Northern Territory annual vehicle fee

We’re also streamlining the park pass fee structure by removing the family and children’s park use fee for Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park and extending free entry to those aged under 18 years old.

That means kids go free at Uluṟu, making it even easier for families to visit this world-renowned icon.

With more and more Australian’s taking a Holiday Here This Year, we encourage everyone to plan ahead and save time by buying your park pass online.
