Walk

Carnarvon Gorge

Carnarvon Gorge, Queensland

A sandstone gorge with ferny side creeks, Aboriginal rock art and long cool walks.

Cost
Free

A deep valley where the walks lead past moss-covered side gorges, a boulder-strewn creek and ancient rock art at Art Gallery. The main track is flat but long, with many creek crossings. It's out of the way and the best time is the cooler months.
