Kata Tjuta is a group of 36 rock domes located in central Australia near Uluru that are considered sacred by the local Anangu people. The domes are made of sedimentary conglomerate rock that is over 500 million years old. The Anangu are the traditional owners of the land and believe that Kata Tjuta is the home of the snake Wanambi according to their legends. Kata Tjuta is now protected as part of Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park, where rangers care for the landscape and work to conserve the local environment and culture.
