Overview

If you're looking for the perfect introduction to Uluru, the Mala Walk is a captivating tour of the sandstone monolith's northwest side. Admire all the evidence of desert life as you walk around the base of Uluru, including ancient Aboriginal rock art, spinifex, streams and groves of green trees. You'll learn about the Mala people and how they lived their daily lives, from the kitchen cave where they prepared their meals to ancient cultural stories.

Your tour will take a pause at the serene Kantju Gorge, a 'fold' among Uluru's surface with stunning sheer cliff walls. Spanning a two-kilometre return journey, the trail is suited to hikers of all experience levels.
