July in Uluru gives you delightfully mild temperatures and clear blue skies, with temps ranging from 4°c to 20°c creating the most stunning conditions. It’s an ideal time to explore the landscape of this iconic desert location and the spectacular views and uniqueness of Uluru and its surrounding landmarks will leave you in total awe.

 

Birds-eye View

If you are hoping to get a thrilling, birds-eye view of the majestic Uluru, local helicopter tours offer a way for you to grab that adventure with both hands. You’ll experience the vastness and beauty of the Australian Outback from the air, which gives you a unique perspective that you can’t get any other way. Look out over the stunning panorama of Kata Tjuta, Uluru and nearby land, and stretch your eyesight to the bounds of the horizon.

If you’re looking for a longer experience, a scenic plane flight will give you plenty of time to enjoy the views over Uluru and Kata Tjuta. Not only will you be able to see these iconic landmarks from above, but the desert views from the air are something that most people never get to experience.

You can sit back and relax as your highly experienced local pilot guides you through the region, all while providing commentary on local history, geology and Aboriginal culture. Take photos of these amazing majestic sites all while gaining a deeper understanding of the land.

One of the most popular aerial tours is the early morning hot air balloon flight. As the sun peeks from below the horizon, it lifts the shadows across the desert landscape, making it difficult to distinguish between the golden hue of the desert and the majestic contrast of the red earth of Uluru. These are the moments that you will remember for the rest of your life.

 

Stay Grounded

If you’d prefer to keep your feet on the ground, there are so many other activities, such as guided walks around Uluru’s base, cultural performances or dining under the stars. The clear winter skies also make this month ideal for stargazing and enjoying the tranquillity of the desert environment. For more activities and travel tips, visit our Things to do in Uluru page.
