Kata Tjuta is an amazing outcrop of 36 domes rising from the desert in the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. Kata Tjuta is Pitjantjatjara meaning 'many heads'.

Some of you may know of, or have walked, the Valley of the Winds. There is another shorter and easier walk, Walpa (windy) Gorge. It is a 2.6 km return Grade 3 walk. The gorge is a desert refuge for plants and animals. The track is rocky and rises gently with bridges over an impermanent stream.

The beginning of the Walpa walk. |

You will be happy to know that there are no ugly trolls under any of the bridges on the walk, as we Billy Goats Gruff dispatched them in the traditional fashion |
