KINGS CANYON

& GLEN HELEN

Much more than a day trip, Kings Canyon
is an essential component of any Central
Australian holiday. Towering 100 metre
high sandstone walls, palm filled crevices
and views that stretch far beyond
the horizon create an awe-inspiring
amphitheatre just waiting to be explored.
Set amongst the West MacDonnell
Ranges, the towering sandstone walls of
Glen Helen Gorge are a sight to behold
as they shade the tranquil waterhole. To
see the gorge framed in the rising morning
sun, or the soft glow of sunset, makes the
rugged walk well worth the effort.
