The only place where you are allowed to pull up is at Jump-up Lookout and rest area just north of the Watarrka National Park border. You are not allowed to stop your motorhome rental or leave the road to walk or camp anywhere else.
-
The King's Canyon Walk
The canyon takes its name from the Kings Creek that flows through it. This 6 km walking loop climbs to the top of the canyon is highly recommended (not for the faint-hearted or the unfit). Suggest you start the walk in the morning (to avoid the heat an the strong winds) and make sure you carry a drink. Along the way you will find refreshing waterholes, gorges and riverine vegetation. This trail would take approx. 3-4 hours and there are some steep sections to climb.
-
Ayers Rock
or as the Aborigines call it, Uluru is the world's largest monolith. It stands 546 metres high above the desert plain right in the heart of Australia. There is a ring road around Uluru offering visitors a 3D panoramic view of the Rock and its mammoth size. You will certainly appreciate the experience in your motorhome rental to see the mammoth rock formation glow and appear to change at sunrise or sunset from blue hues to bright orange and reds.
Visitors travel here to engage and learn about the Aboriginal customs and beliefs and the Aboriginal spirituality here at the Rock. Join one of the many guided tours at the base of the rock and learn the significance of this feature to the Aboriginal culture. We do not recommend you climb Uluru (out of respect for the Aboriginal owners). We suggest you to embark on a walk around the 9 km base. There are interpretative signs along the walk to assist in gaining an understanding of the area.
