MacDonnell Ranges

These fabulous mountains stretch for 644 km both east and west of Alice, with numerous waterholes, beautiful gorges, historic sites and Aboriginal rock art as well as plenty of walking trails, wildlife and good bush camping. Some places are within a reach of 10-20 km from town, so head here and enjoy its rich atmosphere.

Do & See
