Ormiston Gorge

Nestled within the West MacDonnell Ranges of central Australia, Ormiston Gorge is a striking natural formation with stark red walls that cradle an almost permanent waterhole. The area is adorned with attractive ghost gum trees, adding to its scenic allure. Visitors can explore the visitor center, set up camp at the campground, or grab refreshments at the kiosk. The gorge also serves as the starting point for sections 9 and 10 of the Larapinta Trail, offering hikers a gateway to further adventures in the rugged landscape.
