Kata Tjuta is a long trip and so worth taking a tour if you aren't self driving. Our tour guide taught us so much about the area, provided us with water and cultural knowledge and the air conditioned bus was very comfortable.

I need to preface my comment, outlining that I need to have an artificial knee replacement due to bone & bone, hence my reason for not believing I will do the full circuit again. I am writing my review, mainly to encourage those who really want to do it, that it can be done. You just need to take it slower & use 2 walking poles. Other fit & able walkers completed the circuit in 2 hours, however I took 4 hours & that is okay. It is not a race. I am pleased I did it, as prior to compromised knees I was a massive sports woman & I like to be active. I really did enjoy the walk. If you believe the 7.4km circuit is too daunting, then the walk to the 2nd lookout Karingana is well worth it.
