Wallaby Gap
Highlights
Wallaby Gap is a super fun spot in the West MacDonnell Ranges, famous for its cool rock walls and beautiful wildlife! This place is named after the Black-footed Rock Wallabies that live in the area, and you might just see one jumping around while you explore. The gap is a great place to stop and enjoy the views, especially if you love birdwatching!
If you’re up for a bit of a walk, you can hike along the Larapinta Trail, which goes right through Wallaby Gap. It’s a great place to relax and enjoy the peace of the outback!
