Kings Canyon NT

Saturday 28th May 2022
Sorry for the delay in updates we have had no wifi for a few days.

After sharing more stories with our Tassie neighbours this morning, we headed to Kings Canyon to do the Scenic Rim walk. This was a 6km loop walk up to the rim of Kings Canyon and then a loop around the top. It was very like the Kimberleys WA and also some of the rocks looked like Purnululu (The Bungles) on a smaller scale. Again there wasn’t much birdlife or animals today but the views were amazing yet again. After the rim walk we then did the 2km return River Creek walk in to the Canyon. We took it pretty easy today, we only did about 10km with all the extra lookouts and gorges in about 4 hours. So a very leisurely pace. 

We then headed to Kathleen Springs but decided not to walk anymore. It was another 2km return gorge walk and instead we headed back to camp for a rest. Very unusual for us.

We enjoyed the sunset over the Canyon whilst we ate an early dinner. It was a lovely day.

We have seen a few dingoes walking around camp tonight and I just heard one howling.
