On this tour you’ll visit Kata Tjuta and explore Walpa Gorge. A 45 kms drive east of Uluru, the 36 domes of conglomerate rock of Kata Tjuta cover an area of over 21 kms², and with Uluru, the two form the major landmarks within Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. Enjoy panoramic views of the southern side of Kata Tjuta before arriving at the base of Walpa Gorge. Walk through the sheer walls of the gorge with your Driver Guide and experience this amazing landscape, a desert refuge for plants and animals.

The six kilometre Rim Walk is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Depart early for Kings Canyon, stopping for breakfast at Kings Creek Station. Climb a 100 metre cliff and walk 6kms along the rim of the canyon for impressive views of grottos, chasms and cliffs. Deep between the sandstone cliffs is the Garden of Eden, a waterhole surrounded by exotic plants. For something more relaxing, set off on a two-kilometre stroll along the boulder-strewn creek bed that leads to impressive views of the canyon rim. To see the Canyon from above, take a helicopter flight (creek bed walkers only and own expense), or bring your swimmers for a dip in the pool.
Watch the spectacular sunrise over Kata Tjuta, with Uluru in the distance, from the western Dune Viewing Area. Then walk 6kms on uneven ground to the Valley of the Winds, heading first to the Karu lookout. Learn fascinating stories of the geology, history and culture of Kata Tjuta, which is deeply sacred to the local Anangu people.
