    We were driving between Kings Canyon and Alice Springs a popped into Ellery Creek Big Hole and Standley Chasm on the way. When we were there it was super dry so not much water but it would of been amazing at the end of the wet season to go for a swim. The colors of the rock and earth blows me away. The energy of this place is ancient and fantastic
  • By Anicka
    Stunning views with a refreshing watering hole which is safe to swim in. BBQs and toilets available with some camping areas. Highly recommend stopping here for a dip. The floor can be rocky so be careful not to dive in.
