Alice Springs - Places to Go

Discover ancient geology at the Museum of Central Australia, and take a trip through time to unfold a story of the giant Megafauna that once roamed the land at Megafauna Central. Want to say hello to some of our smaller creatures that exist today? The Alice Springs Reptile Centre and Alice Springs Desert Park are home to a range of native animals that you can get up-close and personal with. Here you can unfold the stories and culture of the Arrernte people, and their connection with the desert. 

Leave a day to discover the tales of the early settlers. Explore how people first came to Central Australia, and the way they have adapted their lives to survive here. Begin at the Alice Springs Telegraph Station, where it all began in the 1870s, then continue your trip through time and stories at the Alice Springs School of the Air, Royal Flying Doctor Service, and the National Womens Museum of Australia.

You can learn and experience it all, at a myriad of specialised attractions that each share a piece of the story.
