The giant red domes of Kata Tjuta,
meaning 'many heads' in the local Anangu language, are just as impressive
as their more famous neighbour. There are a few walks where you can immerse
yourself in this astonishing landscape. A 6km circuit of the formation can
be done in 3-4 hours. A 4- hour walk through the Valley of the Winds is an
unforgettable experience. For the less energetic a short 1-hour walk up to
Olga Gorge in the late afternoon is the perfect precursor to the sunset light
show. Kata Tjuta is 50km west of Uluru. Accommodation is available 5km outside
the National Park at the resort town of Yulara. The town is serviced by an
airport which has flights to and from many Australian centres. There are also
many tours available from Alice Springs, 465km to the north east by road.
