Northern Territory walking highlights
Marvel at Ormiston Gorge
Boasting the title of ‘most impressive gorge in the whole West MacDonnell region’, Ormiston Gorge is a natural wonder that has to be seen to be believed (make sure you take heaps of photos as proof). With its rising red rock walls, flourishing native plant life, and enchanting waterhole, fit for freshening up at the end of a long walk, beauty doesn’t even begin to describe it.
Learn about Aboriginal culture
Start exercising your brain instead of your body by learning about First Nations culture. From marvelling at one of the territory’s most outstanding rock art sites, Ubirr, in Kakadu National Park to connecting with Country in Alice Springs, the Northern Territory is full of spellbinding history thousands of years in the making.
Embark on a journey along the Larapinta Trail
Heralded as one of Australia’s greatest multi-day walks, the Larapinta Trail is bound to capture your heart with its naturally bewitching landscapes and spectacular scenery. Whether you’re excited to set foot on the towering red rock slopes of the West MacDonnell Ranges, yearning to walk up rugged mountains for unbeatable views, or simply can’t wait to explore shadowy gorges and curving riverbanks, this legendary trail is as challenging as it is rewarding.
Hike your way through Kakadu National Park
The Northern Territory's national parks are full of magnificent landscapes to trek, but Kakadu National Park is perhaps some of Mother Nature’s best work. You could spend days here and it still wouldn’t be enough time to see all the Aboriginal artwork, fascinating native animals and waterlily-covered billabongs that this wonderful region is known for. From hiking through valleys to relaxing in pristine swimming holes, make the most of every moment.
