About Walls of Jerusalem National Park

The park takes its name from the geological features of the park which are thought to resemble the walls of the city of Jerusalem. As a result, most places and features within the park have Biblical references for names, such as Herods Gate, Lake Salome, Solomons Jewels, Damascus Gate, the Pool of Bethesda. According to local legend, there's a prophet that roams the wilderness, cursing the nations of the walkers who enter the park. The most prominent feature of the park is King Davids Peak with an elevation of 1,509 metres above sea level, and can be seen in most places, especially at the camping site. Much of the walking track consists of raised boards, from Wild Dog Creek through to Dixon's Kingdom, with the purpose of protecting the fragile alpine vegetation. Walking tracks elsewhere in
