Taarna Valley

Natural Attractions

Experience culture. Walk on Country. Hear their story.

In the heart of the Tjoritja/West MacDonnell Ranges lies Taarna Valley — a place of deep cultural significance, owned and operated by local Arrarnta People and guided by generations of knowledge from our Elders.

Here, you’re invited to slow down and connect through immersive cultural experiences that honour Arrarnta ways of seeing and being. Join their hands-on art workshops, be Welcomed to their Country and experience on their cultural immersions, walk on Country together with local Arrarnta guides, and see work created by local Arrarnta artists at our on-Country gallery space.

Taarna Valley is more than a destination — it’s a living place of learning, art and storytelling, created to strengthen culture, provide opportunities for our people and offer visitors a meaningful way to experience Country with respect. With panoramic views framed by the striking Mt Sonder, Taarna Valley is a place of reflection and connection.

This is Taarna Valley. A place to connect. A place to belong.
