Giles Track

Impressive natural wonders, indigenous culture and the heritage of outback Central Australia can all be experienced when trekking this 22 kilometre, two day long distance walking track located in Watarrka National Park.

The Giles Track follows the southern rim of George Gill Range, from Kings Canyon to Kathleen Springs.

You will be rewarded with dramatic views of Watarrka National Park across wilderness virtually unchanged since first described by Ernest Giles. Hike through beautiful valleys, beehive-shaped sandstone formations, and across rocky watercourses. This hiking experience will disclose native wildlife including spinifex pigeons, rock-wallabies, euros, goannas and pythons.

Scattered across the range are many grinding stones, stone blades, stencilled art and petroglyphs as the flat, rocky plateau made for relatively easy and safe travelling for Aboriginal people.

The track is suitable for experienced bushwalkers of average fitness, capable and equipped to carry adequate food, water and camping equipment in a remote area.
