Alice Springs to Kings CanyonThis morning we travel along one of the most scenic desert roads in the country – the Mereenie Loop Road that connect the old Hermannsburg Mission, located beyond the Western McDonnells, with Kings Canyon, 170 kms away. The Mereenie Loop Road can be a little rough but the scenery is sensational.

We arrive at Kings Canyon early afternoon. Our lunch stop today is at Kings Creek Station The afternoon is available to explore Kings Canyon via either the Ridge Top Walk or the shorter walk into the floor of the Canyon. |
