Glen Helen Resort
Alice Springs is a short drive from Hermannsburg, and after a long day, a good spot to land is the Glen Helen Resort. The Glen Helen Resort is a self-proclaimed "Oasis" that offers amenities, entertainment and nature as vast as the desert that surrounds it. Visitors can relax to the views of wildlife, enjoy a local brew or simply listen to local musical entertainment. Room amenities include air conditioning, private suites and refrigerators, in addition to the numerous facilities that are available to guests, such as a swimming pool, restaurant and gallery.

Old Hamilton Downs Homestead
For a completely different idea of bonding with nature and experiencing the land as old pioneers did, try the Old Hamilton Downs Homestead. Although the primary function is to educate youth, the Old Hamilton Downs Homestead still opens the prairie doors to anyone who is interested in learning. Come prepared though because here are responsible for bringing their own food, linens and necessities. Bunk beds and open floor cabins are available as well as kitchen access and stoves.
