Hale, NT · 24 sites · Tents, Lodging
On 200 hectares, just 30 minutes drive from Alice Springs, Ooraminna is a place to feel grounded within the rugged beauty, vast landscapes, and tranquility of Central Australia. This is Arrernte Country, where for tens of thousands of years there have been continuous, culturally rich connections to its deserts, springs and mountain ranges. Over a century ago, Deep Well Station cattle began grazing the land, and in the 1980’s Ooraminna Homestead was imagined as a film set to bring legendary Aussie tales to life. Today, Ooraminna’s vision is to provide a place where the remarkable environment is protected and visitors feel a sense of belonging amongst the ancient bushlands. Trails lead to a spectacular lookout and a life-giving billabong. Secluded cabins sit shadowed by red rock outcrops, and campsites are circled by blue mallee gums. Cooling off in the swimming pool as the sun sets is a stunning way to end the day. Experiences at Ooraminna invite connections with people, place and nature. Escape into the wild, feel the rhythms of the red earth, and stay immersed in an untamed wilderness beneath starry desert skies.

Must be fully self contained! Welcome to our little slice of the Territory, where the loudest neighbours are the birds and the only traffic jam is a couple of wallabies crossing paths. Pull in with your caravan, camper or pitch a tent and enjoy some peace and quiet away from the crowds. Need power? No worries its $10 extra per night. There's plenty of space to spread out, fresh spring-fed water available for guests, and a short walk to our seasonal creek. Wander along the creek bed, enjoy the scenery, spot a bit of wildlife, or find a shady spot to sit back with a cold drink and let the world slow down for a while. When the day's adventures are done, settle in for a quiet evening under the stars. We're far enough from the hustle and bustle that you can truly switch off, unwind, have a fire and enjoy the calm. And the best part? We’re tucked away from the chaos — no riff raff, no late-night wanderers… your beers will still be exactly where you left them in the morning 🍻😉 We’re perfectly placed as your base to explore Kakadu and Litchfield — big adventures by day, peaceful camp vibes by night.
