Alice Springs to Yulara (Uluru)

Winton, Queensland

Yulara is a fully serviced community, catering to all types of visitors and budgets. All the facilities are well maintained but can get very busy during peak seasons. There is a wide range of built accommodation at Yulara – from budget to luxury – bookings are essential from May to September. The camping facilities are excellent and reasonably priced. The Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park entry station is located on the highway south of Yulara (Entry Fees Apply). Between Curtin Springs and Yulara there is a subtle change in the visual appearance of the landscape. This is the transition between the Finke bioregion to the east and the Great Sandy bioregion to the west. Both are hot and arid areas characterised by hummocky grasses, mulga/mallee and low woodlands. A significant difference is the presence of scrubby hungry iron-rich gravelly rises, a deeply weathered terrain in the Gibson Desert and extensive sand plains with dissected uplands, valleys and more desert oak groves in the Finke. The road from Alice Springs to Yulara is a sealed dual-lane.
