The Journey
The Ghan. It’s an odd name for a train but in Australian
history it is a living legend. The legend has soared to new
heights with the extension of The Ghan journey to Darwin.
When The Ghan first departed Adelaide for Alice Springs, it
was always intended that it would one day travel through to
Darwin. More than 70 years on, in 2004, that dream has become reality.
Boarding The Ghan in Adelaide or Darwin,
experience one of the most fascinating great train journeys
of the world. Connections are available on the Indian Pacific
and The Overland for guests travelling to or from Sydney and
Melbourne. Enjoy 2 nights aboard this great train in either
direction. Marvel at the spectacular Australian landscapes
from fertile countryside surrounding Adelaide to the rusty
hues of the Red Centre, onto the tropical splendour of the
Top End. The Ghan is the ultimate journey through the heart
of the continent.
