Alice Springs
In the centre of Australia surrounded by red desert lies Alice Springs. Once a remote outpost, Alice Springs is now the second biggest town in the Territory, with all the conveniences of a modern city.
The original Alice Spring is still there - the permanent waterhole that clinched the location of the Overland Telegraph Station in the 1870s and named after the wife of Sir Charles Todd, Postmaster General of South Australia.
The township was originally called Stuart but officially became Alice Springs in 1933 when only 400 people lived there.
You'll be inspired by the scenery of the West MacDonnell Ranges that motivated artist Albert Namatjira to paint these landscapes and share them with the world.
Washed in sunburnt oranges, maroons and purples, these rocky ridges contain chasms and gorges of rugged scenery, each with their own unique character and scenery. Visit Simpsons Gap, Standley Chasm, Ormiston and Glen Helen Gorges, Palm Valley and the Finke Gorge National Park.
Explore the gullies, sheer cliffs, gorges, rivers and ghost towns of the East MacDonnell Ranges, and to the north, the gemfields of Harts Range and the historic gold mining settlement of Arltunga.
The East McDonnell's include the serene granduer of Trephina Gorge and John Hayes Rock Hole, the Emily and Jessie Gaps Nature Park, the aboriginal paintings of N'Dhala Gorge, and the historic Ross River Homestead.
The Simpson Desert is real frontier country that is still as wild and untamed as it was for the first European pioneers 150 years ago. With it's eerie landmarks such as Chambers Pillar, undulating sand dunes and challenging desert tracks, this is 4X4 outback country at its best.
Alice Springs is the hub of a truly magical part of Central Australia.
