Kings Canyon, Watarrka National Park

Image Leave a comment

Kings Canyon is a spiritual site of the Luritja people. It’s sandstone dunes protect tropical pools and provide great views for visitors. Our rim walk took us up and across the dune tops, over crevices and through a lush ‘Garden of Eden’.  The Kings Creek walk at the base of the canyon meandered along a dry, stony creek bed lined with coolibah trees and river red gums.  The nearby Kathleen Springs still has remnants of cattle trapping yards.
