Happy Camper: Tenting at Longitude 131

Welcome to Longitude 131 — the glamourous camp (and I mean that). At Longitude 131, you’ll sleep in a tent all right, but this is no pop-up tent.

Luxurious, eco-sensitive and romantic, Longitude 131° offers immersion in the wilderness of Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, complete with 5 star luxury and private views of the sun rising and setting over Uluru (Ayers Rock).

In the crisp, white linen of a king-sized bed you find the serene, silent sleep of the desert. Above the sweeping canopy of your palatial tent floats a greater canopy, endless and sparkling. Constellations brimming with Anangu, (local Aboriginal people), tales and stories -- In fact, they claim you'll dream the rich dreams found only in the heart of sacred, powerful places.

As one of only 30 guests (adults only), you awake to your own private view of the sun rising over Uluru (Ayers Rock). Reflecting countless colours, Uluru drenches you with its fabled light. The walls of your tent are a visual narrative, telling of the discoveries made by an early outback pioneer (alright ... I'm sold).

This award-winning luxury wilderness camp in Australia's Red Centre has achieved new heights in ecotourism the world over. Longitude 131° is a deluxe camping experience like no other and set atop an isolated sand dune close to the border of the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park.

As far from anywhere else as you can be. As close as possible to serenity. It's rejuvenation for the body, stimulation for the mind and liberation for the spirit.

After all, being a happy camper doesn’t have to mean roughing it.
