Hancock Gorge and Kermits Pool
1.7 km
Return
1 h to 2 h
Starting from Weano Recreational Area, Karijini, this walk takes you to Kermits Pool and back. This walk is for the fit adventurers that want to experience a short, demanding, but also rewarding walk. You can traverse along the gorge bed as you enjoy the ancient formations with an abundance of colours and textures scattered around you. The walk ends with a spectacular view of Kermits Pool, after which it is forbidden to continue as it can be dangerous. The texture of the track varies. There is a section towards the end called spider walk (where you stretch your arms and legs out to straddle the gap and move along the walls). Additionally, walk through the water and avoid sharp ledges. It is advised that you wear reef shoes rather than hiking, as the gorge bed can be slippery and wet. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
