Uluru and Kata Tjuta
Both World Heritage listings, these amazing iconic symbols of nature that have evolved over millions of years dominate the landscape of Central Australia.
Uluru is higher than the Eiffel Tower and the Chrysler Building in New York standing at 348 metres high and 860 metres above sea level.
Kata Tjuta is a Pitjantjatjara Aboriginal word meaning many heads (Kata – heads Tjuta – many). Kata Tjuta is made up of 36 domes spread over an area of more than 20kms. It is also known as The Olgas (named by Baron Von Mueller after his queen the Queen of Olga, from his country Württemberg in Germany)
Uluru has been the home of the Mutijulu people for centuries. As you take in the sites around Uluru you will learn about the Tjukurpa (law and culture) of the Anangu (Aboriginal people) at Uluru. The Kunya Tjukurpa is at Mutujulu Waterhole where the battle of the Kunya woma python and Liru the poisonous snake man took place. Now the waterhole is protected by Wanampi, an ancestral water snake. The Mutujulu Waterhole is one of the various short walks that you can take around Uluru.
