Scenic Spots in MacDonnell, Northern Territory Australia
Glen Helen Gorge is a great place to view the West MacDonnell Ranges, take a cool dip, and is an important refuge for local wildlife.
The gorge is located 132 kilometres from Alice Springs, in the western reaches of the West MacDonnell Ranges, and is a popular overnight stop for drivers embarking on the Red Centre Way.

Glen Helen Lodge is shut. The hike starts in a car park just off the highway. It’s an easy fifteen-minute walk to the gorge, which has lots of water and decent lighting. (The cliffs are very exposed to the sun in winter.) There are other, more spectacular gorges, but this one takes very little effort.
Resort is closed but you can tracking to gorge. 800m 15mins
Still closed. Can't get any fuel here.
Closed at the moment
This is now closed due to Covid I think. No fuel or anything available. Even the road is closed off.
