The Best Stargazing In The Red Centre
Perhaps some of the most intoxicating sights unique to Australia’s Red Centre are the region’s night skies. There is no light pollution in Central Australia and this means visitors can see the stars in their unobstructed glory from almost anywhere.
Despite the cool climate at night, the views of the constellations are majestic and worth staying up past bedtime to witness. Constellations which cannot be seen from anywhere else in the world are observable from Central Australia’s lookouts and observatories.
The Earth Sanctuary and Uluru Astronomy are two destinations where visitors can learn more about the night skies and how early explorers used them to navigate. The Dark Skies Festival offers visitors the chance to observe some of the clearest night skies seen in Australia. We provide information about these destinations below.

A guide to constellations and stars in Alice Springs
There’s nothing quite like gazing up at the outback sky at night. With crystal clear skies and minimal light pollution, Alice Springs boasts breathtaking views of the stars and constellations that shine brightly over the red centre. In fact, the outback is regarded by many as the best place in Australia, and one of the best places in the world, for stargazing. Read on for some of the most famous stars and constellations that you may be able to see from Alice Springs.
Southern Cross
No visit to Australia is complete without spotting the Southern Cross, which consists of five stars in the shape of a kite. This star pattern is pictured on the Australian flag, and mentioned in the Australian national anthem, so it is a significant part of Australian culture. The Southern Cross is part of Crux, which is the smallest constellation in the sky. To find the Southern Cross, look for two particularly bright stars close by: Alpha and Beta Centauri. Follow a line from Alpha to Beta Centauri, which will take you to the top star of the Southern Cross: Gamma Crucis.
Libra is the only constellation from the zodiac family that represents an object rather than an animal or a mythological character. The four brightest stars form a quadrangle, seen as scales representing balance, and the name Libra is Latin for ‘the weighing scales’. Within the Libra constellation lies Methuselah, the oldest known star in the universe, as well as three stars with known planets.
Also from the zodiac family of stars is the Scorpius constellation, which represents a scorpion and has associations with Greek mythology. The brightest star within Scorpius is Antares, which is one of the brightest stars in the sky.
Orion the Hunter
This constellation represents a character from Greek mythology named Orion, who was a hunter. It is one of the brightest and most well-known constellations. Within Orion the Hunter are two of the ten brightest stars in the sky: Rigel and Betelgeuse. This constellation belongs to the Orion constellation family. The stars that make up Orion’s belt and his sword are often referred to as the pot and the saucepan in Australia.
The Seven Sisters
If you’ve found Orion the Hunter, follow a line through the three stars of Orion’s Belt, which will lead you to a V-shaped pattern with a bright star. The V shape is the face of Taurus the Bull, and the bright star is his eye. A little past the eye, you will see the Pleiades cluster of stars, also known as the Seven Sisters, which makes up the bull’s shoulder. The name comes from Greek mythology, in which the Pleiads were seven sisters, however, the stars are also thought to be siblings by astronomers.
These stars and constellations can be seen on a self-guided astrology excursion or simply from your Alice Springs campsite. Alternatively, book a tour to learn about what you see and the significance the constellations have to Aboriginal culture.
Where to stargaze
Located north east of Alice Springs airport, Earth Sanctuary Space Observatory offers a specialist stargazing location, complete with knowledgeable guides. If a guide is not required, simply book a campsite, sit by the fire, and look up. The entire outback offers ideal stargazing conditions, however for the best of the best, venture further away from town into the surrounding ranges and nature parks for even clearer skies.

Australia’s ultimate stargazing locations
- Share Share on Facebook Share on Messenger Share on Twitter Share on WhatsApp Copy Link
Remote destinations and ink-black skies make Australia one of the best places in the world to gaze at a marvellously bright Milky Way.
The Milky Way contains billions of stars, and when you gaze into the desert skies above Central Australia, you’ll feel like they are all blazing down on you. Just outside of Alice Springs , Earth Sanctuary’s astronomy tours highlight planets, constellations and lesser-known phenomena such as dark nebulae. Join an experienced guide to explore the marvellous southern night sky using a laser pointer and telescope.
The Aurora Australis, or Southern Lights, illuminate the night sky with hues of green, blue, purple and red in a spectacular natural display. The light show is visible all year round from Tasmania , although you are most likely to see it during winter at locations that are free from light pollution. Hobart’s highest mountain, kunanyi/Mount Wellington, offers a magnificent viewpoint, as does the nearby Mount Nelson.
Where to see the Southern Lights
Travelling in Tasmania? Keep your eyes peeled for one of nature’s most magnificent shows.

Love the idea of falling asleep beneath a blanket of stars? Wherever you go in Australia, you will find glamping and off-grid experiences that allow you to soak up the full splendour of the night sky. Simply step outside your tent and look up to see the spectacular display in all its glory at destinations such as Queensland’s Nightfall camp , New South Wales’ Paperbark Camp and Arkaroola in South Australia’s Flinders Ranges .
No wi-fi, no worries: Where to go off-grid in Australia
Switch off and unwind at one of these back-to-nature escapes in Australia.

You don’t need to go far from the city to enjoy a spot of stargazing. In Western Australia's capital , the Perth Observatory has been around for more than 120 years, boasting modern and historic telescopes to showcase globular clusters, nebulae, star clusters and galaxies. Choose from a range of Night Sky Tours including a Moonlit Night option, which allows you to explore the intricate details of the moon’s surface.
Have you ever noticed the giant emu in the night sky? During the Universal Dreaming tour, the guides at Cosmo Centre in outback Queensland will show you the people and animals that, according to Indigenous lore, live among the stars. Take a seat around a campfire and roast marshmallows as you listen to ancient stories from the world’s first astronomers. Tours with the Cosmos Centre run from April to September each year.
Candlelit dinners can’t compete with starlit dinners, particularly when they take place in one of the outback's most picturesque locations. Experience a multi-course dinner highlighting native ingredients before sharing Aboriginal stories and decoding the night sky as it glistens above you. Choose from Sounds of Silence or Tali Wiru at Ulu r u, or Under a Desert Moon at Kings Canyon .
Guide to Uluru and Kata Tjuta
The ancient rock formations of Uluru and Kata Tjuta rise from the land to make an incredible sight. Immerse yourself in the Aboriginal stories of this special place, 500 million years in the making.
High altitude, low humidity and distance from the big cities gave Warrumbungle National Park the status of the Southern Hemisphere’s first Dark Sky Park, and the stargazing here is second to none. Siding Spring Observatory, on the edge of the national park, is home to the largest optical telescopes in Australia. Pitch a tent to sleep beneath the stars at well-equipped spots like Camp Blackman .

I want to drive myself
So, you plan to drive yourself from Alice Springs to Uluru! There are several things you should be aware of while driving, such as wildlife that might jump onto the road, especially kangaroos, and any roadkill left behind. Adhering to the speed limit is also crucial in Australia! Once you’re mindful of these factors, here are a couple of stopovers you should consider between Alice Springs and Uluru to make the most of your drive
– Tjoritja/West MacDonnell National Park
Not too far from Alice Springs is Tjoritja, also known as the West MacDonnell National Park. This national park features unique plants and scenic gorges, with must see sites such as Simpsons Gap, Glen Helen, and Ellery Creek Big Hole.
– Watarrka National Park/Kings Canyon
Watarrka National Park is home to the famous Kings Canyon , a stunning area with 300 metre high sandstone walls, views across the red desert, and surprisingly lush areas. Within Kings Canyon, the Garden of Eden is a prominent spot with abundant greenery. The Garden of Eden involves a walk of about three to four hours.
– Mount Conner
Sometimes mistaken for Uluru, Mount Conner is a 500 million year old sandstone peak formation with a flat top. Although Mount Conner is about four metres shorter than Uluru, it is one kilometre longer!
Whether you opt for diving yourself or joining a tour, be prepared the drive is still a long five hours through the Aussie outback! With plenty to see along the way, nothing quite beats seeing with your own eyes just how incredible Uluru truly is, especially at sunset .
