Such a beautiful place holding such a great importance of modern Australian history.Can't imagine what life was at the telegraph station in the beginning of the 1900th, but definitely not easy.

This is where Alice Springs came to be. Worth a visit to see the history of the overland telegraph. We rode hired bikes to the this location. Allow one to two hours.

We came here as part of a tour of Alice Springs with AAT Kings. It's such a wonderful historical place, the place where Alice Springs got its name. The displays were very interesting, and it was truly amazing the equipment (or lack of) they had to work with all those years ago. It's worth a visit when in Alice Springs

Wow!! For history buffs and those who just enjoy knowing what happened in Australia before themselves, learning about Alice Springs in the NT has a lot of pluses. Their old telegraph station clearly shows the living conditions of time past and just some of the conditions we lived with. Don't miss your visit.

We arrived here for a special Ghan dinner, and what a great time we had with great food, drink and a band you could get up and dance to. Everyone seemed to enjoy the food and evening. The food was roasted vegetables and the steak was cooking over the grill as you walked by to collect your steak. Cold beer, wine and other drinks were supplied and they had staff to guide you around to various points of interest like the blacksmith as well as security. Fantastic night put on by the Ghan.

Great place to have picnic. It's a wide park with tables and bbq area. Bring chairs or mat if you simply want to relax. There is also a coffee shop within the area.If you are feeling adventuruous, wear your hiking shoes! There's heaps of walks just around the area. You'll definitely enjoy the view.

On my Alice Springs adventure recently our tour guides referred to the Old Telegraph Station and its origins on several occasions, so on my last morning I decided I needed to go. I wasn't disappointed. It was so interesting and very well presented thanks to our lady guide who brought alive. I have great respect for the men and women who came outback and took on this amazing journey.
