蛇形峽谷是位於愛麗斯泉以西 100 公里的西麥克唐奈山脈中的一個狹窄峽谷。
沿著峽谷的眾多標記清晰的路徑之一穿過河紅色樹膠的涼爽陰影，或到達懸崖上方的瞭望台，以調查一系列半永久性水坑的景色和崎嶇的麥克唐納山脈的地質情況。
旱季時，周邊水潭乾涸，蛇紋石峽谷水潭成為大面積僅存的水潭。鳥兒會從周圍的鄉村遷入，靜靜地坐在水潭邊很容易觀察到。
地毯蛇夢的遺址，峽谷中的一些地區和西部懸崖對西部阿倫特的守護者俱有特殊的意義。
蛇形峽谷也是拉平塔步道第 7 和第 8 段的起點，這條 231 公里長的步行步道穿過西麥克唐奈山脈。
通過傳統的兩輪驅動車輛進入，但在潮濕的天氣中很難通過，因為最後幾公里是崎嶇的進入軌道。這條路不適合公共汽車和大篷車。
