Alice Springs & Surrounds

Alice Springs, or Mparntwe is the largest city in Central Australia, you could call it the unofficial capital of the Red Centre. Surrounded by ancient mountain ranges and dramatic desert scenery, the city has also become the artistic hub of the region with a number of galleries and art centres operating in and around the vibrant centre.

Alice Springs is your gateway for incredible day tours and longer expeditions in the surrounding area. There are many Aboriginal cultural sites to be discovered - keep your eyes open if you are walking along the Larapinta Trail and MacDonnell Mountain Ranges. Further south at Kings Canyon a maze of hikes offer you an unforgettable experience of this great landscape - with the Secret Garden a must-visit.
