Getting there

Car

If you are traveling by car, ensure you have a 4WD vehicle as the roads leading to The Window can be unsealed and rough. Start from the Bungle Bungle Range Visitor Centre. Take the Purnululu National Park road and follow the signs for approximately 53 kilometers. The road will eventually lead you to the parking area near The Window trailhead. Parking is available, but it is recommended to arrive early to secure a spot.

Walking

Once you park at the trailhead, begin your hike to The Window. The walk is approximately 2.2 kilometers (round trip) and typically takes about 1 to 1.5 hours to complete. The trail is moderately challenging with some rocky sections, so wear suitable hiking shoes. Follow the marked path leading through the stunning Bungle Bungle formations until you reach The Window, a breathtaking natural rock formation offering beautiful views.

Guided Tour

Consider joining a guided tour if you prefer not to navigate on your own. Many local tour operators offer packages that include transportation from your accommodation to Purnululu National Park and guided hikes to The Window. Prices for these tours can vary, typically ranging from AUD 150 to AUD 300 per person, depending on the inclusions. Make sure to book in advance, especially during peak tourist seasons.

Public Transportation

There are limited public transportation options directly to Bungle Bungle Range. You can take a bus from nearby towns like Kununurra or Halls Creek to the entrance of Purnululu National Park, but you will need to arrange a shuttle or taxi service from there to the trailhead, as public transport does not go directly to the hiking areas. Be prepared for additional costs for the shuttle service.
