The base walk around the Uluru rock is too long! even the weather on that day is good. I'd like the walk to the gorge. I also like the water hole and the surrounding view. I walked to the 2nd look out at Kata Tjuna and I like this walk

Uluru is a wonderful place to visit. Interesting plant life and great photo opportunities and plenty of water as we had a short 10 minute storm on our first day. Easy 12 km walk around the base for those that are mildly fit. Well planed tourist options for different fitness levels and depending on how much you want to spend. Can be expensive. I would go there again. Eating options, Geko cafe has the best food and good prices and lovely service.

Magical place and so much history. I loved that it wasn’t overly commercialised as is with other tourist destinations. We did the base walk with kids and it took 4 hours of slow walking and lots of stopping. It’s best to visit early in the morning and watch the sunrise. There are also other amazing places to visit nearby eg Mount Olga’s, Kings Canyon and Waḻpa Gorge. Would recommend desert sails Mangata bar and grill. Hiring a car to get around is much easier with young families.

Most enjoyable events-- 1. Sunrise Uluru base walk 2. Sunset AAT/Kings BBQ and star gazing 3. Sunset camel ride 4. Kings Canyon rim walk AAT/Kings do a fantastic job on Yulara logistics

Went in July so the weather wasn't too hot the days were full of sunshine ,Ayers rock is very beautiful and there's a feeling i can't quite explain about it. I only got to do the waterhole and that area was lovely I will go back to explore the other parts of her one day. I recommend getting more than a 1 day pass as there's a lot to see, and it works out cheaper to buy a different pass .There was no toilet at the water hole car park so lucky for me Nina from the Segway Tours allowed me to use her private toilet so a big thank you to her. Don't take cash with you as it's cashless all over Uluru except for IGA.

Uluru is a sacred spiritual place where awe is the only word to describe the first sighting of the rock. Please take time to learn about the history and formation of the rock and the significance of the rock to Aboriginal people past and present. You can certainly feel the ancestors and custodians of the land all around when you take a moment to do so. Please respect that there are significant places where photographs cannot be taken and the signs are there advising. It isn’t a recommendation it is a requirement. If you choose to do the base walk this is BIG, we cycled and it was long and tiring and hot (even in winter) but also freezing at other times of the day. Check temperatures accordingly. In hotter periods they shut the walks during the hottest part of the day - please allow for this. You will need a car or to get on the hop on hop off bus. to explore.
