Walpa Gorge or the Valley of the Winds: Which Kata Tjuta Walk?
Walpa Gorge is 2.6 km and an hour; the Valley of the Winds is 7.4 km and four. Which to walk, which the heat closes at eleven, and which tour covers each.
Guides that each make one decision for you. Which of the two walks to take. How to spend two days across both formations. Whether you need a guide at all. What the day actually costs once the park pass goes on, and how to handle summer. Shorter pieces answering one question each live in the blog, and visiting Kata Tjuta has the park hours and the pass.

Two days at Uluru and Kata Tjuta, hour by hour: one sunrise, one sunset and a 45-minute drive west, built around gate times that move by four hours.
You can drive to Kata Tjuta for the price of a park pass. When that is the right answer, when a guided departure earns its fare, and what each really costs.
What Kata Tjuta tours cost and why two similar prices differ: the A$38 park pass, meals, beds and refund windows, with every band set out on one table.
Kata Tjuta in summer: the 11am closure at 36 degrees, gates open 5am to 9pm, the flies, and which guided departures still run through all of it.
If you have not booked anything yet, start with which walk to take. Everything else follows from it, because the walk decides how long you need and therefore which departure fits. If you already know when you are going, the two-day plan is the one to read the night before. And Kata Tjuta Tours lists every departure with its price.
