Red centre road trip from Darwin

The distance from Darwin to Alice Springs in the Red Centre is a long one, but there are many great stops along the way.

One such stop over is Pine Creek town, where you can explore and discover why the town is often called ‘Gold Town’.

Then, drive to Katherine. Here, you can explore the caves, falls and the famous Katherine Gorge.

Then, you are off to Mataranka for a much needed rest at the Thermal Pool.

Visit the oldest pub in the North Territory at Daly Waters Pub or explore the Qantas hangar at the town of Daly Waters.

Drive as long as you want and visit as many towns as you can, and when you get tired, there is a good range of accommodation for you in Tennant Creek.

From Tennant Creek you can drive south to Alice Springs. On the way stop and explore the Devil’s Marbles and the giant rounded granite boulders.

Whilst in Alice Springs drive out to Uluru/Ayers Rock, a quintessential Australian landmark of Aboriginal significance and see the rock as it changes colours throughout the day, especially at sunset and sunrise.

If you don’t fancy retracing your steps back to Darwin to drop off your hire car, consider a one way rental that you can hand over in Alice Springs or perhaps even in Adelaide further south.
