Pine Gap is located ~20km’s from Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. There are a few transport options being organised.
Bus Melbourne to Pine Gap
The Close Pine Gap organising collective in Melbourne is organising a bus with two drivers to transport people directly from Melbourne to Alice Springs for the CPG Camp in the last week of September. It’s a long ride but a fun one, with plenty of beautiful country to see along the way. It’s also the cheapest way to get to and from Alice Springs, with a return price of $250.
The bus will leave Melbourne on the 25th September, and return on the 3rd October. To secure your seat, book using the link here:https://www.trybooking.com/Booking/BookingEventSummary.aspx
