 Palm Valley, Finke Gorge National Park |
 Is this the world’s oldest (and driest) watercourse?
In the 650 kilometres it meanders from the Macdonnell Ranges down toward the Simpson Desert, Central Australia’s Finke River remains mostly a river of sand. Fewer than ten permanent waterholes exist, life-savers for human and animal life.
