About Alice Springs
Alice Springs at Night
Alice Springs is a spirited bush town that grew from humble beginnings. It started out in the 1870's as a lonely repeater station for the overland telegraph line that ran the length of Australia and on to Europe. 'The Alice', as locals call it, has since grown into a modern town that still wears its Outback heritage proudly.
Situated in the middle of a huge, sparsely populated continent, Alice Springs is legendary for its isolated position on the map. Innovation has worked in bridging distances - Alice Springs is home to great Australian institutions such as the Royal Flying Doctor Service (an airborne medical service to remote bush communities) and the School of the Air, which uses two-way radios to give lessons to children on far-flung cattle stations.
Alice Springs is the second largest populated town in the Northern Territory and has developed into a modern, thriving outback town. However it has not lost any of its charming heritage or outback hospitality.
