Our favourite walk option. This is, in our opinion, the best way to experience the Larapinta Trail. Walking the full length, from either east to west or west to east, walkers get to immerse themselves in the natural environment of the West Macs. A very physical walk, but an excellent natural, visual and spiritual experience. More coming soon.
