格伦海伦峡谷 (Glen Helen Gorge) 是观赏西麦克唐奈山脉 (West MacDonnell Ranges)、畅游清凉的好地方，也是当地野生动物的重要避难所。
该峡谷距离爱丽丝泉 132 公里，位于西麦克唐奈山脉的西段。
格伦海伦 (Glen Helen) 周围的风景非常壮观 - 到达时首先看到的是高耸的砂岩墙。该地区可以欣赏到桑德尔山的景色，桑德尔山是澳大利亚中部的最高点之一，随着光线的变化颜色也随之变化。
在格伦海伦峡谷，山脉分开，为芬克河让路。这个永久性水坑是炎热夏季的重要避难所，是所有九种芬克鱼类以及迁徙水鸟的避难所。芬克河从这里流入辛普森沙漠。
格伦海伦峡谷对该地区的传统所有者具有精神和实际意义。与峡谷有关的祖先故事与月亮祖先伊泰耶有关，他在寻找妻子时来到了该地区。
全长 231 公里的拉拉平塔步道 (Larapinta Trail) 步道的第 10 段是一条全长 8.9 公里的中等难度一日徒步路线，终点为芬克河 (Finke River) 步道起点。从格伦海伦 (Glen Helen) 出发，通过 4.5 公里长的步行道即可到达该步道起点。
