Iytwelepenty / Davenport Ranges National Park

Iytwelepenty / Davenport Ranges National Park is a remote national park in the Barkly region of the Northern Territory, about 300 km southeast of Tennant Creek. Covering rugged ranges, spinifex plains, waterholes and river systems, it protects semi-arid landscapes and significant Aboriginal rock art. Notable for isolated waterholes such as Old Police Station Waterhole, 4WD tracks and bush camping, it offers outback nature experiences in a largely undeveloped setting.

Visitors can expect a remote, rugged outback landscape of low ranges, rocky gorges, spinifex-covered plains and permanent waterholes including Old Police Station Waterhole, Whisky Creek and Frew River. The park is accessed via unsealed 4WD tracks and offers basic bush camping, walking, swimming in waterholes, birdwatching and photography. Facilities are minimal with pit toilets and fire pits only. Rock art sites and pastoral heritage remains are present. No shops, fuel or drinking water are available.
