## Parking at Araluen Cultural Precinct on Larapinta Drive

The main visitor option is the car park in front of the Araluen Arts Centre at 61 Larapinta Drive, Araluen. The centre describes the parking as ample, giving drivers a direct option beside the galleries rather than needing to park in town (araluenartscentre.nt.gov.au).

Designated spaces are available for holders of disabled parking permits, and the site is accessible by wheelchair (araluenartscentre.nt.gov.au; nt.gov.au). The galleries are open seven days a week from 10am to 4pm, so those hours are the useful guide for planning a museum visit (assets.atdw-online.com.au).

## Busy Times and Street Parking Around the Araluen Site

The precinct is a five-minute drive from the centre of town, west along Larapinta Drive, and sits directly opposite the Alice Springs Tourist Park (discovercentralaustralia.com).

Accessible parking is reserved for disabled parking permit holders, while the general visitor parking is in front of the Araluen Arts Centre (araluenartscentre.nt.gov.au). The galleries operate seven days a week from 10am to 4pm, so daytime visits can draw drivers throughout the week rather than only on weekdays (assets.atdw-online.com.au).
