  • Marvel at the awe-inspiring Standley Chasm (Angkerle Atwatye)
  • Cool off at Ellery Creek Big Hole, one of Central Australia’s largest and most beautiful swimming spots
  • Discover the towering walls of Ormiston Gorge (Kwartatuma), and spot the elusive black-footed-rock-wallaby in Simpsons Gap (Rungutjirpa)

— What You Can Expect —

Discover Angkerle Atwatye, also known as “Gap of Water,” at Standley Chasm – a 3-meter-wide and 80-meter-high gorge situated in the rugged West MacDonnell Ranges. Keep an eye out for native wildlife as you explore this stunning landscape. Head west to Ellery Creek Big Hole (Udepata), where you can take a refreshing dip in the waterhole while surrounded by towering red cliffs. 

Your journey then continues to Ormiston Gorge, where you’ll witness the grandeur of massive geological forces. Your final stop will be at the remarkable Simpsons Gap in the Tjoritja West MacDonnells region, where you’ll find a permanent waterhole that serves as a wildlife watering hole – a perfect spot to observe the local wildlife! 

To conclude your tour, you will be dropped off at your accommodation in Alice Springs.
