Timeline
18:00
Grab a meal and a drink at the Tennant Creek Memorial Club. The friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere make it a perfect spot to settle in before the evening rush.
18:42
Walk to Nelson Park. It is just a short stroll from the Memorial Club. Use these minutes to stretch your legs and let the afternoon air clear your head before the main event.
19:18
Arrive at Bill Allen Lookout. Position yourself to face west. At 19:18, the sun sets toward the WSW, casting a warm glow over the 360-degree view of the town and landscape. This is the moment to watch the light fade.
Local tip
Bill Allen Lookout is a 42-minute walk from the anchor, but Nelson Park is much closer. If you are coming from the Nyinkka Nyunyu Interpretive Centre, consider starting at Nelson Park first to avoid the long walk later. Check transport routes if you are not walking from the centre.
