Attack Creek Rest Area

Pull over at Attack Creek Rest Area in the remote Barkly Tableland — genuine outback country where cattle stations span horizons, ancient rock formations dot the desert, and the stars are brighter than you've ever seen. The golden rule on NT roads: stop and rest every two hours. These rest areas exist because they save lives. Take a break from the road, watch the eagles soar overhead, and remember that the journey through the Territory IS the destination.
