ACCEPTANCE OF RISK

• The Larapinta Trail is a wilderness experience defined by remoteness, mountain ranges and extreme temperatures. In case of injury, evacuations can take anywhere from a couple of hours to more than twelve hours, depending on location and whether the rescue attempt extends into the night.
• All passengers participating in our tours do so at their own risk, and no responsibility can be accepted by Get Lost Travel Pty Ltd / TA Walking Country for any loss, injury or accident.
• Passengers are responsible for any additional costs involved should such instances occur. All passengers will be required to sign a liability waiver before departure. All passengers must wear shoes at all times, use sunblock and wear hats.
