Kata Tjuta Valley of the Winds Walk

The Valley of the Winds trail allows visitors to fully immerse themselves in the stunning landscape of Kata Tjuta's rock formations. Along the path, there are two lookout points that offer unparalleled views of the awe-inspiring Mars-like terrain surrounding Kata Tjuta.

This trail is categorized as Grade 4, which means it can be quite challenging. It includes steep and rocky sections, so it's important to exercise caution and take your time as you navigate it.

If you choose to complete the entire Valley of the Winds circuit, it typically takes about 3 to 4 hours to finish. You'll find a water source roughly midway through the trail, which can be a welcome refreshment.

Alternatively, for a shorter and less strenuous option, you can opt to walk to one of the lookouts and then return. Interestingly, the full circuit is often considered easier than walking to the second lookout, known as Karingana, and coming back.
