Watarrka National Park & King's Canyon, situated on the western edge of the George Gill Ranges is 300 kilometres to the north east of Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park and 310 kilometres west of Alice Springs.

One of our most spectacular natural environments, the ranges above the spinifex strewn desert create a landscape of rugged ranges, rock holes and gorges. King's Canyon's ancient sandstone walls have been sculptured by the elements rising up 100metres to a plateau of ruddy domes. Ancient marine fossils etched into the rock give a glimpse of the landscape up to 300million years ago.

A walk along the rim takes you back in time through bee-hive like domes and an ancient sea bed to the place known as "The Garden of Eden" deep in the heart of the canyon. Almost inexplicably the surrounding rock has collected enough water to provide for a lush cycad fern filled garden.

Once seen, never forgotten.
