A desperate search has commenced for a hiker reported missing on one of the country’s most popular and beautiful walks. Alistair Thompson was hiking the Larapinta Trail in the Northern Territory, which stretches 223km from Alice Springs to Mount Sonder. The 63-year-old reportedly set off alone on the hike over two weeks ago on May 13, walking east along the trail towards Alice Springs.
“A search operation has been underway on the Larapinta Trail since 9am this morning, with the Police Search and Rescue Section vehicles and foot teams, along with a helicopter,” NT police said. Alistair was last heard from on Tuesday, May 21, messaging a friend that he planned to be at Hugh Gorge by Wednesday, May 22. Police said he was expected to have made contact by now, and has also failed to check into his hotel.
