Camping in the great outdoors is the perfect way to connect with the landscapes of Central Australia.

There is nowhere to camp in the national park, but the nearby Ayers Rock Resort at Yulara has a fantastic campground with all the facilities you need for a comfortable stay.

Further afield, Curtin Springs offers the unique experience of camping on a working outback cattle station.
