Enjoy a full day of incredible sights, full use of the resort facilities on the island and treat your taste buds to Australian seafood (think oysters, barramundi, threadfin salmon, fresh salads and dessert). Or take a cruise of a different kind and set sail from Cullen Bay to the Tiwi Islands. Here, you'll learn about the rich Aboriginal history that resides within the region and have a picnic for lunch. Once you're back on the mainland, consider a stroll through the main CBD before heading to the Vibe Hotel Darwin Waterfront for your final night.

Binns Track

Make your way from the South Australian border right up to Timber Creek with Binns Track. Originally established to bring tourists to outback Australia, the track offers sights such as Alice Springs, Ruby Gap and Devils Marbles.

Keep in mind that Binns Track requires a 4WD, so we recommend renting one to ensure you can travel through the entire itinerary. Also, as you will be staying in a couple of campgrounds, we suggest stocking up on easy-to-prepare foods.

• Distance: 2,548km, 34 hours.

• Route: Mount Dare to Timber Creek via Alice Springs, Tennant Creek and Dunmarra.

• Highlights: Mac Clark (Acacia peuce) Conservation Reserve, West MacDonnell Ranges, Ruby's Gap, Gemtree, Devil's Marbles, Dunmarra and Timber Creek.

• Best time to drive: Driving is best between June and early September as this is the dry season. Undertaking this itinerary during the wet season can lead to flooded back roads.

• Things to do: Mac Clark (Acacia peuce) Conservation Reserve, Ruby Gap National Park, West MacDonnell Ranges Day Trip, hot air ballooning in Alice Springs, Devil's Marbles, Nyinkka Nyunyu Art and Culture Centre, Judbarra/Gregory National Park, Nackeroo Lookout and the Timber Creek Police Station.
• Stay at: Old Andado Station, Mercure Alice Springs Resort, Ruby Gap Nature Park campground, Gemtree Caravan Park, Goldfields Hotel Motel in Tennant Creek, Dunmarra Wayside Inn and the Timber Creek Hotel.
• Eat at: Epilogue Lounge & Rooftop Bar or Bella Alice in Alice Springs, Gemtree Caravan Park in Gemtree, Sporties Club or Woks Up in Tennant Creek and the Timber Creek Cafe.

  Day	Route and itinerary
  Day 1 Distance: 224km Drive time: 3 hours 15 minutes	Abminga to Mac Clark (Acacia peuce) Conservation Reserve Starting from the South Australia border, make your way north-east towards Mt Dare. Your first stop on Binns Track is the Mac Clark (Acacia peuce) Conservation Reserve. The reserve offers a chance for you to see the rare Acacia peuce trees in one of their only natural habitats. While you're here, we recommend either taking a walk or driving a 4WD through the vast landscape to take it all in. Drive 35 minutes to the Old Andado Station where you can set up camp for the evening.
  Day 2 Distance: 542km Drive time: 6 hours	Old Andado Station to Alice Springs Feel free to take it easy this morning with a short stroll around the Old Andado Station. Aim to leave just before noon for the six-hour drive to Alice Springs via Stuart Highway. Although there are other routes to take, this one offers the easiest drive. Remember to take a short driving break every two hours. Grab a bite to eat at the Epilogue Lounge & Rooftop Bar and stay at the Mercure Alice Springs Resort.
  Day 3 Distance: 0km Drive time: 0	Alice Springs Your full day in Alice Springs kicks off nice and early at 7:45am. Venture out with the West MacDonnell Ranges Day Trip. This experience takes you to sights such as Simpsons Gap, Standley Chasm, Mount Sonder, Ormiston Gorge and Ellery Creek Big Hole. The small-group tour also features wildlife spotting across the Red Centre, so keep your eyes peeled for black-footed rock-wallabies and Pacific herons. Morning tea and a picnic lunch are included. Spend your last night at the Mercure Alice Springs Resort.
  Day 4 Distance: 143km Drive time: 2 hours	Alice Springs to Ruby Gap Aim to leave your accommodation around 8:30am and head to Ruby Gap. The nature park hosts a plethora of activities including walking tracks. It is advised that only experienced walkers tackle the walk as the terrain is extremely rugged and trails aren't marked. If you are an experienced walker, consider the 4k (2-hour return) walk to Glen Annie Gorge. Set up camp at the Ruby Gap Nature Park campground. Keep in mind that there aren't any on-site facilities and these need to be provided by you.
  Day 5 Distance: 281km Drive time: 3.5 hours	Ruby Gap to Gemtree After packing up your camping goods, make the 3.5-hour drive to Gemtree. Upon arrival, we recommend getting a short stretch in before commencing in a self-drive tour. You'll be able to explore local pastures and the vast Hart Ranges. The Caravan Park offers mud maps with directions. You also have the option to take a nature walk, which runs for three kilometres through the property. Stay the night at the Gemtree Caravan Park. Note that from Easter Weekend until October, the Campoven Kitchen offers a set menu two to three times a week.
  Day 6 Distance: 509km Drive time: 5 hours	Gemtree to Tennant Creek via Devil's Marbles Drive four hours north to Devil's Marbles. Give your legs a bit of a stretch and explore the massive granite boulder collection. Be sure to take a short driving break every two hours. Once you've had an adequate rest, head back onto the road for the hour's drive to Tennant Creek. Get dinner sorted at the Sporties Club and spend the night at the Goldfields Hotel Motel.
  Day 7 Distance: 355km Drive time: 3.5 hours	Tennant Creek to Dunmarra The seven-day mark offers another slower-paced morning. We recommend checking out the Nyinkka Nyunyu Art and Culture Centre before heading to your next destination. Enjoy a coffee and wander through the gallery as you take in the local Indigenous art. Drive 3.5 hours to Dunmarra. Get some well-earned rest at the Dunmarra Wayside Inn as well as dinner at the in-house lounge.
  Day 8 Distance: 431km Drive time: 4.5 hours	Dunmarra to Timber Creek With a big section of driving ahead, we recommend making the most of your morning. Be sure to fuel up with breakfast before hitting the road for a 4.5-hour journey west to your final destination in Timber Creek. Once you've arrived in Timber Creek, fill your afternoon with a visit to the Police Station Complex followed by the Nackeroo Lookout. Stay at the Timber Creek Hotel.
  Day 9 Distance: 62.5km Drive time: 6 hours	Timber Creek Welcome your final day of the trip with a visit to the Judbarra/Gregory National Park. The park offers many 4WD expeditions for you to explore the area with. We recommend making a day of it and taking the Humbert Track. This passage runs between Humbert River Station and Bullita Homestead and offers a relatively easy drive. The Fig Tree Valley Lookout comes highly recommended for the afternoon as well as a walk to Police Creek Waterhole. It's six hours all up. The local government urges visitors not to swim as all the waterways are home to saltwater crocodiles. Spend the last night of your journey at the Timber Creek Hotel.

Frequently asked questions

What kind of car do I need?

To play it safe, you'll want to take a 4WD. Road tripping across the Northern Territory may require you to take unsealed, dirt roads or possibly take a route through national parks. In these instances, you'll want a vehicle that can take on the conditions.

If you're hiring a car, make sure the company allows you to take the rented vehicle down unsealed roads. Many companies don't as a standard, and if anything happens to your vehicle on unsealed roads, you may be liable for any repair costs, even if you do have insurance. Some companies do let you pay a premium that will cover you on unsealed roads.

What are the best campsites in the Northern Territory?

Some of our favourite campgrounds include the following:

• Wangi Falls Camping Area, Litchfield National Park
• Gunlom Campground, Kakadu National Park
• Jatbula Trail, Katherine
• Palm Valley Campground, Namatjira
• Lorella Springs Wilderness Park, Limmen National Park
• Walker Creek, Litchfield National Park
• Tjuwaliyn (Douglas) Hot Springs Park, Douglas-Daly
• Devils Marbles Conservation Reserve, near Davenport Ranges National Park

When is the best time to visit the Northern Territory?

The Northern Territory is split into two climates. The northern end of the territory, which includes Darwin and Kakadu, is a tropical climate. In this case, you'll want to travel between June and September to avoid high heat and humidity.

The southern portion of the Northern Territory, where you'll find Alice Springs and Uluru, has a desert climate. This means that the days are hot and the nights can reach 0 degrees. The best time to visit Alice Springs is in September when the temperatures are the most comfortable.
