Hiking the Larapinta Trail
The Larapinta Trail is regarded as one of Australia’s premier walking tracks. From the old Alice Springs Telegraph Station to the peak of Mount Sonder, the trail stretches 223 kilometres along the backbone of the West MacDonnell Ranges.
As part of this 6 day adventure, you will stand on ancient escarpments and gaze out upon the ochre-coloured landscapes of Central Australia. You will follow Aboriginal Dreaming tracks and trek beside one of the world’s oldest river systems.
By day, you will experience the diversity of desert habitats and learn the unique history of Australia’s Indigenous peoples. At night, you will fall asleep to the sounds of native wildlife under a blanket of stars.
Why you'll love this adventure
- Experience Central Australia and explore the mountains, valleys, rivers and desert landscapes of the Red Centre
- Uncover the history of Australia’s traditional owners and gain a deeper understanding of Indigenous culture
- Ascend Mount Sonder, one of the Northern Territory’s highest peaks
