West MacDonnell Ranges- Half Day Trip from Alice Springs

The panoramic landscapes of the West MacDonnell Ranges are extraordinary for their immensity and array of sunburnt oranges, maroons and purples. View spectacular outback scenery and take photos as we travel along through magnificent Outback Country, stopping at the many historic locations. As we depart town, we will stop at the historical Flynn’s Grave Memorial. Enjoy beautiful walks at both Simpsons Gap and Standley Chasm- Angkerle Atwatye.

The John Flynn’s Memorial Historical Reserve is just outside of Alice Springs. It is the resting place for the ashes of the Reverend John Flynn, the founder of the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

Simpsons Gap is one of the most prominent gorges located in West MacDonnell Ranges. Once you arrive at Simpsons Gap, enjoy a guided walk through the towering cliffs to the waterhole. Keep an eye out for black-footed rock wallabies!

Arrive at Angkerle (Standley Chasm), a must see natural attraction of Central Australia. Enjoy a walk along its stony watercourse, where you may see some bird and wildlife that inhabit the area. Afterwards enjoy a morning tea.
