The Barkly Tableland runs east from Tennant Creek towards the Queensland Border and is among the most important cattle grazing areas in the Northern Territory. Roughly the same size as the United Kingdom or New Zealand, the region consists mainly of open grease plains and some of the world’s best and largest cattle stations.

Hill Mining Centre and Devils Marbles Hotel have landed a place halfway around the board at Old Kent Road. They are open 9 to 5 every day with new stocks of the Red Centre Monopoly.  This iconic game has been brought to life with these images, tokens and properties.  A bit closer to town is Kunjarra, which is a lovely place of peace and gentleness.  You can see a large grey kangaroo out there wandering.
