Explore Central Australia and experience the incredible beauty of one of earth’s oldest landscapes.

Discovery Resorts - Glen Helen (formerly Glen Helen Lodge) is the only accommodation located within the Tjoritja - West MacDonnell Ranges National Park, just 130km west of Alice Springs.

Immerse yourself in this 800 million years old landscape - home to the Western Aranda Aboriginal people for tens of thousands of years.

Enjoy a haven of outback hospitality with 25 motel rooms and an expansive campground with powered and unpowered sites. Make the most of our facilities, including our restaurant, bar/bistro, swimming pool, fuel, and outdoor terrace overlooking the stunning Glen Helen cliffs.

There is so much to see and do with a range of 4WD tracks, nature and bush walks, and a swim in Glen Helen Gorge is also a must.

Campfires are currently not permitted due to Fire Danger Season.

Due to the fire danger season, now in place for this property, Discovery Parks has implemented a total ban of campfires being lit within our park/property. Thank you and we appreciate your understanding.
