Standley Chasm / Angkerle Atwatye
Prepare for a dramatic natural spectacle when you visit Standley Chasm, or 'Angkerle Atwatye' in Arrernte. This impressive gorge is privately owned and managed by the Arrernte Indigenous people. Around midday, when the sun is directly overhead, sunlight illuminates the red rock walls in a glowing orange and red, creating a truly photogenic experience. You'll hike through a shaded gorge lined with towering cycad palms until you reach the narrow chasm. It's not just a visual delight but also a place of deep cultural significance that you should enjoy with respect.
