Alice Springs, the third-largest town in the Northern Territory, is a significant gateway to Australia's famous Red Centre. Founded in the 1870s due to the construction of a repeater station for the Australian Overland Telegraph Line, the town has since developed into a bustling hub for tourists and locals alike. Originally named after Alice, Lady Todd, the wife of the telegraph pioneer Sir Charles Todd, Alice Springs is locally referred to as Mparntwe by the Arrernte—an Indigenous people who have called the region home for tens of thousands of years.

Straddling the usually dry Todd River and flanked by the magnificent MacDonnell Ranges, Alice Springs serves as an important service centre and tourist gateway. With its diverse range of accommodation and world-class convention centre, visitors can experience the area's rich Indigenous history and the breathtaking beauty of the surrounding Central Ranges xeric scrub that includes numerous hiking trails and swimming holes.

When to visit Alice Springs

The ideal time to visit Alice Springs is during spring (March - May) or autumn (September - November), when temperatures are warm (25-30°C) and nights are mild. These pleasant conditions make it the perfect time to explore the region, including the famous Larapinta Trail, which is best hiked during the cooler winter months (June - August). However, travellers should avoid visiting during the sweltering summer months (November - February) when temperatures frequently soar, and the town experiences its peak tourist season.

Whether staying at the budget-friendly YHA Alice Springs or the centrally located Double Tree, which boasts a refreshing pool to cool off in, visitors to Alice Springs can choose the ideal accommodation to suit their preferences and budget on Lycafly. Don't wait—book your unforgettable Alice Springs holiday today!
