The walls form the southwestern boundary of the "Great Dome," a massive rock amphitheater. The paths in the sand pit and at the base of the walls are often narrow, steep, and slippery due to loose sand. Sturdy footwear is essential. As the area is located in the core zone of the national park, only marked trails and climbing routes (indicated by a black arrow on a white background) may be used.
