Kings Canyon Resort
About Kings Canyon
Watarrka National Park protects one of Australia’s most stunning natural environments. The George Gill Range rises out of Spinifex – strewn desert like the walls of a once strong fortress.
Time has carved great buttresses out of its swooping sandstone sides. The surfaces are punctured with rocky crags having battled the elements for more than 300 million years. Ancient marine fossils etched into the rock show the incredible environmental changes that have taken place over time.
You can also get a glimpse of the environment that once was when you enter the ‘Garden of Eden’. This inexplicably lush garden of feathery cycad ferns can be found deep in the gorge of the canyon.
Kings Canyon is truly an environmental wonderland, its history evident at every step.
