Cape Crawford, Hermitage and tourist attraction in Northern Territory, Australia
Cape Crawford stands at the intersection of the Tablelands Highway and Carpentaria Highway, featuring sandstone formations and savannah woodland landscapes.
Lindsay Crawford discovered this location in 1880, naming it Cape Crawford due to the Abner Range's resemblance to a coastal cape formation.
The Aboriginal communities name the rock formations Yalyalacomella, where the shapes represent elements of the Rainbow Serpent in their ceremonies.
The Lost City geological formations remain accessible only through helicopter tours, with the nearest accommodation available at the Heartbreak Hotel.
The sandstone columns in the Lost City reach heights of 25 meters, formed through erosion processes over millions of years.
