Rising 100 metres from the desert floor, Kings Canyon features towering sandstone walls, a lush permanent waterhole known as the Garden of Eden, and weathered rock domes called the Lost City. The Rim Walk is one of central Australias most rewarding day hikes, offering views deep into the canyon and across the surrounding red desert.
