Venture west along the ranges from Alice Springs for a day of panoramic mountain scenery visiting tranquil waterholes at Ormiston Gorge and Ellery Creek Big Hole.

At Ormiston Gorge, we have time for morning observations of some of the abundant wildlife of the area like the White Plumed Honey Eaters, or the Spotted Bower Bird, we may even see a dingo as we stroll and wander between the serene Riverine and the spectacular Range habitats before morning tea.

The Ochre Pits with its amazing range of coloured rock is significant to the local aboriginal culture for decorating both body and weapons. Ellery Gorge with its spectacular cliff faces and cool deep water hole provides an apt back drop for our gourmet picnic lunch.

Early afternoon we visit Standley Chasm with its wallabies lazily sunning themselves amongst the torn and weathered walls of red quartzite rock. Our last stop before civilisation is Simpsons Gap, an impressive gap with towering ramparts above a tranquil cool water hole. Tour concludes Alice Springs approx 5pm.

Departs: Monday, Wednesday and Saturday at 8.00am
