Mount SonderLookout

A 16km return summit climb to the fourth-highest peak in the Northern Territory, in Tjoritja / West MacDonnell National Park. Six to eight hours, hard grade, with most walkers leaving Redbank Gorge before sunrise to catch the sunrise from the summit. Section 12 of the Larapinta Trail — the final stretch for end-to-end walkers. Painted repeatedly by Albert Namatjira from the Hermannsburg perspective. Best walked April to September; closed when forecast temperatures exceed 36°C.
