Over 400,000 people make the journey to Ayers Rock every year, some choosing to drive the several thousand kilometres from the coastal areas across the great Australian outback, though most choose to fly into Ayers Rock Airport.
With its vast eerie spiritual landscape, it's no surprise that many people opt for cheap car hire when heading to the outback to explore the expansive Ulurua - Kata Tjuta National Park where the natural landmarks of Ayers Rock (Uluru) and The Olga's (Kata Tjuta) can be found. Special viewing areas with road access and parking have been constructed to give tourists the best views of both sites so you won't feel out of place in your hire car.
If you purchase car rental in Ayers Rock Resort you will be armed with all the information you need to travel the park safely, giving particular consideration and respect to the park's traditional Aboriginal owners, who refer to Ayers Rock as 'Uluru.' Climbing 'Uluru' is a popular attraction for visitors but at its peak the high winds high and dry desert conditions can cause problems - if you haven't got a high level of fitness you might be best exploring the grounds from your hire car.
The climate around the Ayers Rock can reach a sweltering 38°C during the summer months and you'd be well advised to take along plenty of bottled water, sunscreen, light clothing and small hand held fans should you choose to leave your hire car and explore on foot.
Having invested in cheap car rental, you should make the most of it and venture further a field to explore the small city of Alice Springs which is approximately 450km north east, together with visiting the sacred aboriginal gorge of the Kings Canyon which is a 300 km journey north.
