Great easy walk. Only two slightly steeper spots when crossing the river (twice). The walk includes the chimneys, tombs and looking glass. My husband doesn‘t like walking as much as me but he did enjoy this walk.

Peaceful, easy walk in a remote part of Queensland. The Tombs site felt very sacred and special, the rock art is incredibly vivid there. Total surprise and despite rushing it (we were running out of daylight), loved every step.
