Day 33 East MacDonnell Ranges and Arltunga

At Trephina Gorge we enjoyed some great walks this morning. We even had our first up-close encounter with a dingo (wild dog)!

From there we left the sealed road behind us and drove to the historic site of the Arltunga Goldfields. At the information site we gathered some information about self guided walks and spent the afternoon exploring the ruins and  the old mine shafts.

There were hundreds and hundreds of birds around, mainly zebra finches and parakeets. 

The night was spend at the Arltunga Hotel campsite which was a bit of a let down. But hey, we weren't expecting a five star campsite to begin with.
