Kings Canyon


Standing at the rim of King’s Canyon makes you feels like you’re on the edge of the earth. The flat face and sheer drop of the canyon walls are both frightening and inspiring in their size and stark, natural beauty. The view encourages contemplation, as your eyes follow a landscape criss-crossed with streams, scattered with pre-historic cycad ferns and filled with native wildlife.

If a three hour trek to overlook the 270 metre drop sounds too challenging, stick to the canyon floor, strewn with boulders and home to the Garden of Eden, where ancient plant life thrives. Be guided through the Lost City, filled with eerie domed rocks, or take a helicopter flight to comprehend the scale of the entire formation. Find out how the canyon was formed, and discover the cultural significance for the local Luritja people.

450 kilometres south west of Alice Springs in the Watarrka National Park, Kings Canyon is an unforgettable destination.
