Park closure

Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park will be closed until 2 pm on Thursday 25 June and all day on Friday 26 June due to a funeral and memorial service following the passing of a senior Aṉangu woman. Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park will re-open at 6.30 am on Saturday 27 June.

More information: Park closures on 25 and 26 June 2026 due to Sorry Business

There is so much to do in and around Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa, from contemplating the vastness of the desert and the richness of Aṉangu Culture to riding Segways through the landscape and dining under a star-studded sky.

Given the wide variety of activities on offer, we recommend staying at least three days to give yourself time to explore, learn, go on some adventures and take your time to understand this special place.

But don’t worry if you’re only here for a short visit. You can still see the main highlights of the park in a single day or less.

Got a bit more time? Ayers Rock Resort offers a variety of paid and free activities you can add to your schedule. Trot across the sands on a camel tour, see Uluṟu from the air on a scenic flight or enjoy an open-air dinner with some of Central Australia’s best views.

Visit the info desk at the Cultural Centre or the tour office in the town square at Ayers Rock Resort for more information about what’s on during your stay.
