Itinerary description

IMPORTANT NOTE: THE DIFFICULTY WITH WHICH I CATALOG MY ROUTES IS REFERRED TO MOUNTAINS USED TO WALK, WHO UNWIND THEMSELVES ON EVERY LAND, NOT FOR OCCASIONAL HIKERS. IF YOU HAVE LITTLE EXPERIENCE, ADD ONE MORE DEGREE TO THE DIFFICULTY OF MY ROUTES SO YOU WILL NOT GET SURPRISES.
Spectacular tour of the impressive Dales Gorge, in the Karijini National Park, an amazing park in western Australia full of gorges of reddish rock, which are more incredible and beautiful.
In this case we start from the campsite where we spend the night and after leaving the enclosure we walk at the beginning along the upper platform until we look out and get the first views of "Circular Pool", which as its name suggests is a circular natural pool, which would be our first objective just down the throat. After taking a refreshing bath, we continue walking through the fun gorge enjoying the beautiful colors of its rocks and folds until we return to another beautiful corner with its own name, in this case the "Fortescue Waterfalls", with its steps where it goes downhill. by step the water and at the bottom of which there is an immense pool where people bathe (in this case we do not do it). We now continue to the last highlight of the route, the "Fern Pool", another magical corner (and full of people). The bath could not be missed because the pool and the waterfalls invited it. We go back and go up to the height of the upper platform and we get again impressive bird's-eye views over the gorge before returning to the campsite where we started the beautiful route.
