Potable Water- Alice Springs

Showgrounds maybe, a night or two in a caravan park.

Try asking at the information center.

If buying fuel just ask for some at the garage, the woolies caltex will oblige.

The servo we went to (west side of the highway) had a tap at the rear. We didn't need a water fill, but friends asked and we directed to it and filled their tanks.

Thanks for the advice , will try the servos !

Any tap that you can legally access , it is all fresh water and good water as well

We're just back from there - the only place we could find to get water was the servos. Ask before you fill up - the Woolies one and the Puma (near the laundromat) were both ok with it. They have "special" taps so you need to borrow the handle from the attendant.

Thanks everyone for your advice, although we are long gone from Alice Springs, and on our way home along the GCR - we found the best place for water refill and cheapest diesel was at the Caltex bulk fuels ( Refuel Australia) 16 Ghan Street. Self service fuel - friendly staff member will help you out) .
