Impressive natural wonders, indigenous culture and the heritage of outback Central Australia can all be experienced when trekking this 22 km, 2 day long distance walking track located in Watarrka National Park.
You will be rewarded with dramatic views of the park across wilderness virtually unchanged since first described by Ernest Giles.
Hike through beautiful valleys, beehive-shaped sandstone formations, and across rocky watercourses. This hiking experience will disclose native wildlife including spinifex pigeons, rock-wallabies, euros, goannas and pythons.
Further Information
