Australian niche attractions 💚 Millennium Bitan on the red soil of the Northern Territory ❤️ Moke Travel takes you to punch in the niche attractions in the Australian and New Zealand ~ Northern Territory is a no-man's land in Australia, sparsely populated. The resident residents here are some indigenous or local miners. Because of this, the Northern Territory contains many small or famous natural attractions that are difficult to reach outside, including the Ululu Stones and a number of attractions on the edge. ·💚Ellery Creek Big Hole West of Alice Springs, the main town in the Northern Territory, about 90 kilometers from the center of the town, is one of the surrounding niche attractions that tourists can't miss in Alice Springs, and one of the best destinations for locals to camp, walk, swim and picnic. ·💚 It takes only about an hour's drive from Alice Springs to this rare clear water pool on the red land. ·💚 The water pool originated in West McDonnell National Park, west of the town. The formation of the pool has a strong ecological significance, after thousands of years of rainy season floods in the Northern Territory and the water supply of the nearby Elle Creek, the pool was born in this deserted land. ·💚 Due to the relatively dry climate in the Northern Territory, there is less rain all year round, and the water quality of the Elle Creek flowing through West Macdonald National Park is sandy, a bit like the Yellow River in China. Affected by these two points, the pool was formed after thousands of years of water reserves. Therefore, internationally, Ellery Creek Big Hole has received extremely high geographical recognition. · 💚 The pool is known as Udepata in the native indigenous language. In the eyes of the indigenous people, this pool also has a unique significance and is a special gathering place for the local Aranda people. ·💚 The pool is surrounded by towering red cliffs, which are particularly prominent on a red land desert, and have a different scenery. In the eyes of locals, the pool is especially suitable for playing in the water during the hot summer. ·💚 To view the magnificent scenery of the pool and the surrounding red rock formations, visitors can walk to the heights of the rock formation and the pool through the 3-kilometer-long dolomite walking path on the edge of the pool. Camping and picnics are allowed around the pool. The special picnic and camping area is near the parking lot near the pool, about 500 meters away from the pool. ·💚 Tourists can also swim in the pool, but it should be noted that the water temperature of the pool is low, remember to prepare before entering the water. ·📍 Address: Namatjira Drive, 90 kilometres west of Alice Springs, Alice Springs📍 Tips: Camping requires a fee and only cash. Tourists need to bring their own drinking water. Travel with ink, travel Australia & New Zealand, unlock different local experience and customize your unique free travel.
