EXCLUSIVE TO AUSTRALIAN NATURE GUIDES.

On this Carnarvon Gorge night tour we'll engage our sight, hearing and sense of smell, and explore the forest floor along easy, mostly flat trails to see which animals emerge upon nightfall.

Marsupial gliders, owls, echidna, platypus and bats are just some of the extraordinary animals commonly encountered on this tour.

Of course, when dealing with wildlife, there are no guarantees! So be very, very quiet, and we'll do our best to get you into a position to see marsupial gliders do what they do best....GLIDE!

Please note: It is important to understand that group noise influences the amount of wildlife we see, as we rely heavily on our hearing to track nocturnal animals. We reserve the right to exclude any participant/s who are unable to remain quiet when directed by their guide. Parents should be particularly mindful of this when booking young children onto this tour.

Available: April - October. 

Duration: 1.5 hours.

Distance: Approximately 1 kilometre, over fairly easy terrain. May involve one creek crossing via stepping stones.

Group size: Min 2 - Max 12.

Includes: Use of our communal binoculars.

BYO: Small torch, closed shoes, and weather appropriate clothing. Hiking poles will also be handy if you are concerned about your balance on the creek crossing.

THE CLASSIC CARNARVON GORGE EXPERIENCE.

Visit the Art Gallery, Ward's Canyon, Amphitheatre, and the Moss Garden with Carnarvon Gorge's most experienced guides.

Hunt for wildlife and unusual plants as you meander along the Gorge floor and then discover the ceremonial meaning behind the Gorge's 4000 year old rock art.

Use Ward's Canyon's extraordinary microclimate to see 30 million years back in time while you wait for the Billy to boil at lunchtime.

Read the Amphitheatre's hidden clues into the formation of the Gorge's rocks and then see the same geology in action as you follow the long journey of the ancient water dripping from the walls of the Moss Garden.

Available: April - September. 

Duration: 8 - 9 hours.

Distance: 14 kilometres. 

Terrain: 16 creek crossings via stepping stones, so good balance is essential. Staircases in and out of the four major sites. The first and last 3 km negotiate a series of three ridge lines, so there are stairs, up and down, in both directions.

Group size: Min 4 - Max 12 (Bookings for groups larger than 12 are possible. Please make direct contact with Simon and Michelle for more information).

Includes: We'll boil the billy at lunch time! Tea and coffee provided.

BYO: Hand sanitiser, lunch, water, snacks, hat, walking shoes, weather appropriate clothing & camera. Hiking poles will also be handy if you are concerned about your balance on the creek crossings.

Exclusive to Australian Nature Guides.

Are you up for a bit of adventure? Strap on your hiking boots and leave the track and crowds behind as you explore some of the Gorge's secret sites that few will ever get to see.

We can only offer this unique opportunity once per week, to just six lucky walkers, making it our most exclusive experience.

Available: April - October (only once per week).

Duration: 8 - 9 hours.

Distance: 15+ kilometres.

Terrain: The first and last section of this walk is on a formed track. The middle section (approximately 5-6 hours) is spent rock-hopping on uneven terrain, crossing the creek many times. Good balance is essential.  

Group size: Min 2 - Max 6 (Due to the sensitive nature of the locations visited on this tour, and restrictions imposed by our Commercial Activity Permit, a group size greater than 6 is not possible).

Includes: We'll boil the billy! Tea and coffee provided.

BYO: Hand sanitiser, lunch, water, snacks, hat, walking shoes, weather appropriate clothing & camera.

Recommended Equipment: Hiking poles are handy for extra stability on uneven terrain (of which there is a lot). Long trousers/gaiters and long sleeves will help reduce scratches, scrapes and cuts from rough plants and rocks.

Bookings: If you're wanting to book multiple tours online (e.g. an Off The Beaten Track Tour AND a Carnarvon Night Safari) be sure to add each product to your cart before completing the form and checking out.
