100 years ago, the borders of the Northern Territory were officially drawn and its capital, Darwin, officially named.

More than 50,000 years before that, the first Indigenous people began sharing their stories here; painting them on rock shelters, singing them to their children and dancing them at ceremonial gatherings.

Today, the Territory story unfolds through six destinations, from the tropics of Darwin and Kakadu National Park and sandstone escarpments of Katherine, through the grassy-plained, million-acre cattle station country around Tennant Creek to the rolling red desert that epitomises Alice Springs and Uluru in Central Australia.

The Territory is a place to engage with colourful characters only too willing to share a yarn. It's a vibrant place, where in the space of a single day, the light on the landscape changes colour. It's an ancient place with spiritual connections that can still be explored in the present day and an adventurous place that can transform and energise you.
