Day Tours
Kings Canyon & Outback Panoramas (returns to Uluru)
1 day | Uluru Return
Travel Period
You’ll get a sense of the remoteness of outback Australia as you travel to Kings Canyon. Located in the heart of Watarrka National Park, it lies in an ancient Australian landscape that is sacred ground for the Ulpanyali and Lilla people. The Rim Walk is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The climb up a 100-metre cliff face reveals views of sandstone walls, grottos, chasms and cliffs. Or, for something more relaxing, set off on a two-kilometre stroll along the creek bed that leads to impressive views of the canyon rim.
Entry to Watarrka National Park requires a NT Parks Pass. It is not included in the price above and can be purchased here.
