Finke Gorge National Park, Desert nature reserve in Macdonnell Region, Australia.

The Finke Gorge National Park encompasses 46,000 hectares of protected land, featuring Palm Valley and deep river canyons in the Northern Territory.

The Finke River system within the park contains geological formations dating back 350 million years, making it one of the oldest river systems worldwide.

Western Arrernte Aboriginal people maintain strong connections to the land through traditional stories and cultural practices preserved within the park boundaries.

Access to Palm Valley requires a high-clearance four-wheel-drive vehicle due to rough terrain and multiple water crossings along the route.

The park contains 3,000 mature Red Cabbage Palms, which exist naturally only in this specific location within central Australia.
