Sights

There are several places in Alice Springs worth a visit. Trace the history of the first telegraph station in the red centre or find out for yourself whether the ‘Flying Doctors’ have anything to do with the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Besides that, Alice Springs is located centrally and a good place to set off for exploration of the bush and the desert. There are several nature parks nearby. This is also the area where you'll find the famous Ayers Rock also knows as Uluru.

Telegraph Station Historical Reserve

Edit This

This is the place just outside Alice Springs where the first telegraph station was built (not in the least because of the continual water-supply by the springs). Later, the telegraph station was moved to the town. You can pay a visit to the former station, located at a ten miles’ distance from Alice Springs. The surroundings lend themselves admirably to the purpose of exploring the outback.
