Spectacular Finke Gorge National Park covers an area of 46,000 hectares and includes the impressive Palm Valley. Palm Valley is home to a diverse range of plant species, many that are rare and unique to the area, including the red cabbage palm (Livistona mariae), which gives the area its name. There are around 3,000 adult palms and thousands of juveniles, which are extremely sensitive to visitor impact. Visit the park to see the mesmerising landscapes that inspired the renowned watercolourist Albert Namatjira who was born and grew up in the nearby community of Hermannsburg. The park is dissected by the Finke River, believed to be one of the oldest rivers in the world.
The park is 138km west of Alice Springs. Turn south off Larapinta Drive just west of Hermannsburg. Access along the last 16km of track follows the sandy bed of the Finke River and is limited to high clearance 4WD vehicles only. Heavy rains may cause this section of the road to be impassable.
