Sport & Recreation
Sporting and recreational groups benefit our local community by creating fun, varied opportunities to regularly engage people, from all walks of life, in social activity – and Alice Springs is a truly sports-loving town!
From extreme mountain-biking and trail-running, to book clubs and lawn bowls, Alice has much to offer those seeking to contribute to the community, improve their health and fitness, or expand their social network.
Alice Springs has an active Heart Foundation Walking Group which meet at Council’s Civic Centre each Saturday at 7am with an end of month walk occurring at a different location. This 45 – 60 minute, medium-paced walk is suitable for people (and dogs on leashes) of all ages and abilities.
