Unique place in Kata Tjuta inhabited by a people with ancestral rites hosting 2 trails: Walpa Gorge and Valley of the Winds
There are two possible routes to Kata Tjuta to really immerse yourself in this unique place, inhabited by a people with ancestral rites. Alarm phones are installed on both routes. On the first kilometer, you will find a lot of people with the tourist buses, but once passed this point, you will feel alone in the world and small in front of the immensity of the place. Climbing is strictly forbidden. When the flies are out, it can be quite violent, creams or anti-fly nets are on sale (at the risk of spoiling the pictures!)
Walpa Gorge. 2,6 km round trip. A short walk of 45 min to discover beautiful landscapes and a very nice perspective on Mount Olga. The gorges are illuminated by the sun in the afternoon. The vegetation, as elsewhere in the park, is abundant, despite the Martian atmosphere of the landscape.
Valley of the Winds. 7,5 km round trip. Count about 3 hours to make a loop in the heart of the massif. The temperature is often high and sometimes requires the rangers to forbid access to the site. Even if the route does not present many difficulties, it is imperative to take water with you and to be in good shape. It is possible to turn around at Karu Lookout (45 min walk in total). For bird lovers, huge groups of tiny green and yellow parakeets, budgerigars or zebra finches are frequently seen here.
