Panoramic of the desert in the west McDonnell range with Mt Sonder at the back, Northern Territory, Australia #128777289
Description
Mt Sonder is 130 km 81 mi west of Alice Springs along the MacDonnell Ranges in the West MacDonnell National Park. It marks one end of the celebrated Larapinta trail, which extends 223 kilometres 139 mi to Alice Springs. The shape of the mountain is a double peak, the relative heights of which are somewhat ambiguous from the summit, although easy to identify from the surrounding plains. The mountain can be seen from the western half of the Larapinta trail, up to Ormiston Pound, which obscures it from then on.
