Walking along the track that links the carpark to the Chasm, you are following a
creek where spring-fed pools attract a great variety of wildlife, especially
birds.
It is thanks to the water that the gully floor of Standley Chasm is lush with plants that
range from delicate ferns to tall gums; including many other species such as the
cycad palm that have survived here from a long-gone era that was much wetter.
The Holly Grevillea is also a wonderful flowering shrub and can be found growing
in along the gully walk.
Standley Chasm is located in a private flora and fauna reserve owned by the
Iwupataka Land Trust. All native plants and animals are protected. Do not pat
the dingoes. |
