Located via 4WD access only from the Larapinta Drive, King's Canyon sits on the Western edge of the George Gill Range within Watarrka National Park. The sheer sandstone canyon walls light up at sunrise & sunset and bring together the unique flora & fauna of the Western Desert, Simpson Desert & MacDonnell Ranges. Wander through the palm trees on the easy Kings Creek Walk, or test yourself against the steep ascent on the challenging Canyon Walk. Hiding within the canyon are immensely beautiful waterholes, including one known as The Garden of Eden. Wander near the rocky buttresses known as the Lost City or take a guided tour to learn about the cultural significance of this stunning area. King's Canyon is a truly iconic & unmissable part of Australia's beating heart, The Red Centre.
Your tour begins as you are picked up from your accommodation and driven to the helipad in air-conditioned comfort. After take-off you will fly direct to the iconic Kings Canyon. On the way, you will be able to take in the beautiful sights of Lake Amadeus, which is the Northern Territory's largest salt lake. Don't forget to keep an eye out for wildlife amongst the incredible natural landscape below.
Your pilot can also land at Kings Creek Station for refreshments, where you can enjoy the Creek Bed Walk at Kings Canyon before returning home. Please ask your travel specialist if you would like to request a landing.
