Anzac Hill - Alice Springs


Looking West from Anzac Hill
Whilst we were in Alice Springs for a week we celebrated our 23rd Wedding Anniversary on the 19th of August by watching the sunset over Alice Springs from Anzac Hill and the going out to the Gillen Club for dinner and drinks.

 Anzac Hill on the north side of town is a popular spot for travellers and you have to secure your photo taking spot just before sunset. It’s well worth the drive up the hill for a view over The Alice.

The Gillen Club is a nice club on the west side of town that serves good cold beer (reasonably priced) and has a special on for dinner each night. The options on Sunday night when we were there were Roast Dinner or Roast Dinner. We decided to have the roast and I must admit that I was a bit sceptical of what we would get for $12.95 but the food was excellent. After a bit of a flutter on the Pokies and Keno we went home $100 richer and our appetites sated. A good night out – would recommend the club if you are at The Alice.
