West MacDonnell Ranges
28/09/2019
After packing the car once more, I left Finke Gorge NP with much sadness. But instead off heading straight back to Alice Springs, I decided to do the Namatjira Drive through the West MacDonnell Ranges NP. What a spectacular drive. There is so much to see along this drive, but I only got a brief glimpse of it. I will need to go back and explore this region.

I never knew the tow bar was multi purpose
I could spend at least two weeks checking out the West MacDonnell Ranges. I would like to stay at Ormiston for a while longer. Other things to see are;
- Redbank Gorge
- Larapinta Trail
- Glen Helen Gorge
- Mt Giles walk
- Ellery Creek Big Waterhole
- Ochre Pits
- Standley Chasm
- Simpsons Gap
- Roma Gorge
Wow it’s so beautiful outback!! Good to see you put the tow bar to good use and the “thumbs up” is still the ongoing trait!!! 👍👍👍👍 😆 lol
Yep, I’m a bogan 👍👍👍👍 😆 lol
Darren the photos that you have taken have been so detailed rich in colour and balanced in composition, you have shown Australia at its best.
Thanks Kim. Even the photos don’t do it justice. It needs to be experienced as well.
