Location Information:

Alice Springs – It’s Australia’s Oasis, the capital of the Outback and the most romantic country town in the world. It’s where the Arrernte Aboriginal tribal group have lived for 20,000 years and where pioneer men and women gave “tough” a new meaning. It’s where they race camels, hold hilarious holiday regattas in dry river beds and where Peter Finch finally caught up with Virginia McKenna in the 1956 film classic “A Town Like Alice”.

What’s so great about “The Alice”? Well they reckon it’s the 5 C’s; the Climate, the Colours, the Culture, the Characters and the Closest proximity to every beach in Australia. So don’t forget to check out the Tide Times around the country.

So whether you fly, drive or take the train, you might want to set aside 7 days to take in everything there is to see and do in Alice Springs as well as the stunning scenery of the Western and Eastern (Macs) MacDonnell Ranges.

If you think “The Alice” is hot, flat and dusty then you had better think again, because there are stunning ranges, spectacular gum trees, refreshing waterholes, beautiful palm trees, awesome colours, more waterholes, amazing wildlife, a lush green golf course, and not to mention the waterholes.
