Another
hum-dinger of a place to visit. The canyon’s Rim Walk revealed why this is one
of Australia’s top tourist destinations. Kings Canyon doesn’t look particularly
incredible from a distance, but the walk takes you through incredible variety
of lanscape, flora and fauna. I think that’s what makes it special. Again, it’s
the kind of place whose scenery is not justified with words. Again, it’s
another place to visit to really get the sense of awe so many of its visitors do.
We loved it! It’s Elliot’s favourite walk to date. Here’s why…
A huge
area around Kings Canyon was ravaged by fire back in January 2013. What it’s
left though, has left the almost fluro-orange soil, with black burnt out
stumps. Quite striking photo opportunities.

This big ol’ tree worth a hug – more or less growing out of the nutrients it can find trapped in cracks in the rock.

Elliot swan, and played in the waterfall. Absolutely freezing he said!!
Huge, ancient cycads in ‘the Garden of Eden’. This is just one example of the huge variety of plants at the canyon.
