Kulgera is last town in Northern Territory as you are heading south along the Stuart Highway. This is an interesting stop which is a bit run down but shop clean and I enjoyed reading all the signs about the place. Apparently this is "The Last and First Pub" in the Northern Territory - a sign displayed next to a painting of a drover leaning on the wall.
This stop has fuel, quarantine bins, meals and takeaway food, with an eating area inside as well as tables along the covered verandah - toilets are located next to the shop. They also sell souvenirs and hand made gifts - I purchased a bracelet made out of gum nuts that had been painted by a local Aboriginal woman.
There were a number of powered caravan sites available for travellers - gravel and no water. There is a bar area with pool table in a separate room alongside the main shop featuring timber along the counter. We try to stop and support these small communities while travelling outback.
