Starting from Herbert Heritage Drive, Stuart, this circuit walk explores the southern parts of Alice Springs Telegraph Station Historical Reserve via the Bradshaw Walk and Riverside Walk tracks, crossing branches off Todd River multiple times along the day. A well marked-flat track hugging the seasonal river, this walk can make for a great regular cardio trip as well as a leisurely stroll to escape modern life. The dry terrain is home to kangaroos and various bird species which you can spot if lucky. There’s not much shade in the area, but try to have a peaceful picnic under a gum tree if you manage to find a good spot. Bring lots of water, wear a hat and apply sunscreen to protect yourself well from the sunlight. A fly net may come in handy as well. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
