Catch the sunrise at Kings Canyon in Australia

You'll want to catch the sunrise at Australian Outback's Kings Canyon—it will astound you. Known as one of the most stunning features of the wilderness, the canyon walk in Watarrka National Park is a 3.7-mile (6-km) trek that you should tackle when you take a medical job in Australia.

The red-rock canyon is approximately 200 miles (322 km) from Alice Springs and offers hikers of various skill levels a chance to test their strength and absorb the views of the gorgeous Outback landscape surrounding them. At the rim of the canyon, you'll get to look down a 1,000-foot (305m) drop while traversing the trail, before stumbling upon natural wonders like the red Sandstone Domes.

The path eventually brings you to the Garden of Eden, which is just as beautiful as it sounds. Lush forests encompass a peaceful watering hole at the floor of this popular canyon, so you'll likely want to spend a bit of extra time here, snapping shots of the diverse Aussie wildlife.
