The MacDonnell mountain ranges run east and west of Alice Springs. We did a trip into the western part of the range, visiting various chasms, gorges and water holes along the way. The water holes gave welcome relief from the intense heat and we ended up camping at one. The scenery is truly spectacular, the red colour being enhanced in the low sun at the beginning and end of each day.
We went as far as the sealed road would allow, but not having a 4WD we had to come back to Alice Springs, ready to go the long way round the Kings Canyon and Uluru. (More stocking up on provisions, water, fuel and internet).
