WALKS OF ULURU

Walking remains the best way to admire Uluru. The sacred mountain offers new details to observe with every step. Despite the tourists, you're sure to spot wild animals like wallabies, dingoes, reptiles including monitor lizards, and colorful birds. Uluru can be very hot in the summer months, so keep an eye on the temperature, and take plenty of water with you.
You can also enjoy these walks by bike (hire from Outback Cycling at the Cultural Centre) or Segway (Uluru Segway Tours, book in advance on the website).

Base Walk. 9.4 km. The most popular of the tours. Allow 3-4 hours for the Uluru tour. The route is extremely pleasant and straightforward: the terrain is rigorously flat. The bravest can take their running shoes and run the route.

Liru Walk. Approx. 4 km round trip, 1h30. Connects the Cultural Centre with the base of the rock.

Mutitjulu Walk. Approx. 1 km, 45 min. From the Mutitjulu parking lot south of Uluru, a circuit around a watering hole resulting, according to Aboriginal culture, from a battle between Kuniya and Liru, two snakes of ancient times.

Mala Walk. Accessible to people with reduced mobility. Approx. 2 km round trip from the Mala parking lot west of Uluru. Option to continue on the Base Walk.

Please note that due to the sacred nature of the site and out of respect for the Anangu people, this ascent of the monolith has been closed since October 2019.
