Destination - Alice Springs & Surrounds
About this Destination:
Alice Springs and Surrounds is a vast region that covers the majority of southern Northern Territory, with Alice Springs at its centre. The region extends from Barrow Creek in the north, and all the way out to the borders of Western Australia, South Australia, and Queensland. Alice Springs is the hub of the Australian outback, where you can stop and plan all your outback adventures. Just in this region you can hike the 223km Larapinta Trail through the West MacDonnell Ranges, discover the ancient landscapes of Finke Gorge National Park, or see it all from above while hot air ballooning out of Alice Springs. Camp out at the Rainbow Valley reserve and experience the changing colours of the sandstone cliffs in the early morning sunrise or the evening sun set. Take a tour or a four-wheel drive adventure out into the Simpson Desert and witness the endless rolling sand dunes, see the amazing wildflowers, the rare pine trees and the strange and unique wildlife that have evolved to live in the desert environment.

You can't visit the Outback without doing a camel ride tour with Pyndan Camel Tracks
During the camel ride often you will see Australian animals like kangaroos and other native wildlife as you experience the true beauty of the Red Centre. We are situated in the beautiful White Gums Valley, among the MacDonnell Ranges, which is explored during our camel rides. You can also visit our ‘camel lounge’ to learn about camels, browse our camel-themed souvenirs, admire camel artwork and camel collectables, observe the camels at home in their yards, and enjoy the peace and serenity of Outback Australia.
