Curtin Springs, Cattle station in Northern Territory, Australia.
Curtin Springs is a cattle station near Mount Conner that spans a large area featuring salt lakes and native grasslands. The property sits along the route between Alice Springs and Uluru, serving as a stopping point for travelers seeking accommodation and meals.
The station was established in 1956 when Peter and Dawn Severin took over the pastoral lease and began with 1500 cattle. They built essential services to support travelers heading toward Uluru.
The Federal Court granted native title rights to traditional owners in 2023, allowing them to conduct ceremonies and hunt on the pastoral land.
The location offers rooms, a campground, and dining options to suit different visitor needs. Fuel services and supplies are available on site to support the journey.
The station produces handmade paper from native grasses that grow on the property, turning local materials into artistic works. This craft represents an unusual use of the land beyond farming.
