Since it comprises multiple tracks, starting either Echo Point or Gordon Falls Lookout will get you started on this enjoyable trek.
It is an enjoyable way to spend an enjoyable couple of hours, as there are plenty of wooden benches for rest stops or picnic lunch if desired.

Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park is famed for both its stark desert landscape and cultural significance, including evocative rock art. Legend has it that two tribes of ancestral spirits battled over Uluru site, creating grooves and holes. Another version has it that natural erosion made the rock reddish-hued over time due to alternate heating and cooling cycles, with layers of feldspar flaking off over time due to this natural process.
