PARK FEES

A good idea is to keep some cash in your vehicle of various amounts so that you can pay Park Admission Fees. At Uluru the fee is $25 which gives you access for 3 days to Ayers Rock & The Olgas. There is the Park Rangers Station on the road in where you pay this fee, so normally change can be provided, however when in South Australia entering Wilpena Pound area or Alligator Gorge in the Remarkables National Park, there is no Ranger Station. Here the admission area is unmanned with you filling out your visitors permit and paying the $8.50 fee by putting the money in an envelope and depositing it in the secure box. Your Permit is then placed on your windscreen. Park Rangers patrol the car parks and can issue fines if you don't have a Permit. It's a long drive in to these places to find you don't have any cash or not the correct amount to pay these Fees.
