Nature’s Window and the Kalbarri Skywalk were definitely highlights of my trip. The walk to Nature’s Window was short and easy, and the view through the rock arch looking out over the gorge was just stunning — it’s such a perfect photo spot. After that, I headed to the Skywalk, and honestly, the views from those platforms were incredible. Standing out over the edge of the gorge felt a bit surreal, like floating above the landscape. The whole area is so beautiful and peaceful. If you’re visiting Kalbarri, don’t miss this spot!
Don't stop walking.... About 150m down from Nature's Window is an equally beautiful spot on the cliffs edge to take 'that photo'... Actually there are 2 angles in which you won't regret walking the extra 150m.
The Loop Trail which is 8km (and a few 'suck my belly in' type of moments) is an absolutely beautiful trail walk from Natures Window around the cliffs edge down along the river bank with the odd view back up the valley to the Skywalk.
Far more beautiful in real life. Natures window is a star but the real gem is the Loop Walk. It took us 4 hours and 40 minutes with lots of picture stops and rest stops and snack / water stops. The hardest parts were the short squeeze up the rocks next to the river and the soft sand in the last quarter, otherwise not to bad for average fitness 60 year olds, I would not do the Loop Walk if you find it hot at the start, it will get worse. Don’t forget your fly net.

Reviews
Nature's Window in Kalbarri National Park is a stunning natural arch made of Tumblagooda sandstone that frames the picturesque Murchison River. Visitors highly recommend experiencing it during sunrise for a peaceful and wildlife-filled experience, with clear paths but some rocky terrain to navigate. The area can get hot, so bringing water, sunscreen, and hats is essential. The short walk offers breathtaking views through the rock arch into the gorge, making it a perfect photo spot.

Great day out on The Loop walk, showing that there’s some more to this place than Nature’s Window.
The 20 perso. queue was amusing to observe. Walk another 10 minutes the views are just as good, you will get closer to nature and you won’t waste your time in the queue.
Leave nothing but footprints on the path though!
Nature's window in Kalbarri is one of the main attractions to do in the national park, because of this it suffers from overcrowding.
Although the views are nice in theory, you rarely ever get them to yourself even as early as sunrise there is a constant stream of people which makes the experience feel less private and overall a little bit too oversaturated.
It is 100% still worth visiting and I would recommend everyone goes to have a look because you never know you might get lucky and you might get it to yourself one day.
This is also the starting point of the walk called the loop which is 9 km loop around starting and ending near nature's window. The area around nature's window also offers other great opportunities to admire the geology and landscape.
