How to Get There and to N’Dhala Gorge

90 kilometres east of Alice Springs via Ross Highway Alice Springs Northern Territory 0870 Australia.

The Gorge is situated 90 kms east of Alice Springs along a sealed road to Ross River Homestead. The turn-off is 500m before the homestead. After the homestead there is 11 kms of 4WD track. The 4WD track crosses the Ross River several times and becomes impassable after heavy rain.

N’Dhala Gorge Nature Park is located 90 kilometres East of Alice Springs, via the Ross Highway and is accessable by four-wheel drive only. This shady gorge contains a wide range of rock carvings and paintings. There are well over 6,000 individual petroglyphs (prehistoric carvings) as well as art sites and shelter sites. One way that Petroglyphs were created was by holding a sharp stone against the rock and striking it with a heavier stone.

The petroglyphs are either of the finely pecked or the pounded varieties that are thought to represent two different time periods. In addition to being culturally significant, N'Dhala Gorge is noted for containing rare plants such as the peach-leafed poison bush and the Undoolya wattle.
