Standley Chasm Rd, Hugh, Northern Territory.
Description
An inspiration regardless of either the weather or the time of the day, the Chasm is at its most dramatic an hour either side of noon on a sunny day. Then the sheer walls glow from reflected sunlight to create a breath taking display of stark form and rich colour.
An entirely different experience is provided along the walking track that links the carpark to the Chasm. This follows a creek where spring-fed pools are attract a great variety of wildlife and particularly birdlife.
Standley Chasm is located in a private flora and fauna reserve owned by the Iwupataka Land Trust and is operated by Aboriginal family members that are direct descendants from Aboriginal people that have lived in this area for thousands of years. They operate the café as a profitable concern with no funding and as a training facility for their children.
Camping is permitted. Sites are located in the carpark and there are powered and unpowered sites available. Fees are payable at the Kiosk on site.
Facilities include toilets, hot showers, a washing machine, small camp kitchen area, picnic tables and BBQ.
Pets are not permitted.
