Arriving at Curtin Springs.
Please come into the store when you arrive. We’ll explain how the campground works and where you can set up.
Find us on the Lasseter Highway, 100km east of Uluru. Please camp only in the marked campground areas.
Camping tips.
Please only camp in the structure rest areas or campgrounds. Camping in the road corridor in the NT is illegal and 50m from the middle of the road is then private property. Just because you don’t see a white picket fence, does not mean it is not someone’s private property. (A campsite on a camping app, does not make it legal!)
