Located in the heart of Watarrka National Park, Kings Canyon lies in an ancient Australian landscape that is sacred ground for the Ulpanyali and Lilla people. After arriving into Kings Canyon, guests will have a choice of two walks; Canyon Rim or Creek Bed Walk. The 6km Canyon Rim is a once in a lifetime experience. Climb up a 100 metre cliff face and walk around the rim of the canyon. Marvel at impressive views of sandstone walls, grottos, chasms and cliffs. Deep down between sandstone cliffs, is the Garden of Eden.
Here is a natural spring waterhole surrounded by local and exotic plants and trees such as gums, bonsai looking trees and enormous prehistoric ferns, creating a truly unique landscape.
Alternatively, the Creek Bed Walk is ideal if you’re interested in something more relaxing. After taking in the sights, set off on a two kilometre stroll along the creek bed, with views of the impressive canyon rim.
Whichever walk you decide to tackle, you will be rewarded with breathtaking and memorable views!
*Please note, during the hotter months of the year where temperatures can reach and exceed 36° C or 97° F, the Watarrka National Park Rangers strongly advise that visitors do not take part in the Kings Canyon Rim Climb.
In this drier desert climate heat exhaustion, over these hotter months, is a very high possibility and a danger in such remote regions. To ensure the safety and enjoyment of our clients we offer a guided walk along the Kings Canyon creek-bed as an alternative.*
