There is an excellent bike path to Simpson's Gap, approx 25 km ride.

The Larapinta Trail starts in Alice Springs and can be walked in its entirety or in sections.

The bird life in the area is outstanding and there are tours with guides available.
The Alice Springs Desert Park is very close and an excellent place to walk in an arid zone environment.
