• Day 2: Kings Canyon Spectacles

  A day for exciting hikes and breathtaking outback scenery! Start your trip with a filling breakfast at Kings Creek Station and learn the stories behind its founding. Then, a steep climb up a series of stone steps takes you to the rim of the Canyon. Appreciate the desert landscape unfolding before your eyes as you make the 3-hour hike and soak up the gorgeous views along the way. Time permitting, walk to the Garden of Eden waterhole with your guide and have a moment of respite in this green oasis.

  If you believe an easier, shorter walk is a better choice, the canyon floor, home to native plants and birdlife, makes a great half-day discovery. Recharge your energies with a delicious lunch (at your own expense) before returning to the hotel with fondness of this magical land filling your heart.
