John Simpson Kirkpatrick , who served under the name John Simpson, was a stretcher bearer with the 1st Australian Division during the Gallipoli Campaign in World War I. After landing at Anzac Cove on 25 April 1915, Simpson began to use donkeys to provide first aid and carry wounded soldiers to the beach, for evacuation. Simpson and the donkeys continued this work for three and a half weeks, often under fire, until he was killed, during the Third attack on Anzac Cove. Simpson and his Donkey are a part of the Anzac legend.

The Best Attractions In Simpson

1. Simpson Desert Simpson
The Simpson Desert is a large area of dry, red sandy plain and dunes in Northern Territory, South Australia and Queensland in central Australia. It is the fourth largest Australian desert, with an area of 176,500 km2 and is the world's largest sand dune desert.The desert is underlain by the Great Artesian Basin, one of the largest inland drainage areas in the world. Water from the basin rises to the surface at numerous natural springs, including Dalhousie Springs, and at bores drilled along stock routes, or during petroleum exploration. As a result of exploitation by such bores, the flow of water to springs has been steadily decreasing in recent years. It is also part of the Lake Eyre basin. The Simpson Desert is an erg which contains the world's longest parallel sand dunes. These north-so...

2. The Great Ocean Road Torquay
The Great Ocean Road is an Australian National Heritage listed 243-kilometre stretch of road along the south-eastern coast of Australia between the Victorian cities of Torquay and Allansford.

5. London Bridge Port Campbell
London Arch is an offshore natural arch formation in the Port Campbell National Park, Australia. The arch is a significant tourist attraction along the Great Ocean Road near Port Campbell in Victoria. This stack was formed by a gradual process of erosion, and until 1990 formed a complete double-span natural bridge. The span closer to the shoreline collapsed unexpectedly on 15 January 1990, leaving two tourists stranded on the outer span before being rescued by police helicopter. No one was injured in the event. Prior to the collapse, the arch was known as London Bridge because of its similarity to its namesake.

7. Otway Fly Treetop Adventures Weeaproinah
A small sheltered grove of Coast Redwoods, Sequoia sempervirens, can be found about 5 km south of Beech Forest in the Otway Ranges in southwestern Victoria. The trees, known by some as Californian Redwoods, were one of many conifer species planted experimentally at different locations in what was to become the fledgling Aire Valley Plantation. The trees, planted in 1936 by the Forests Commission Victoria, were initially slow to establish but have thrived and grown to a height of over 60 metres. Measurements in 2004 show the trees have the potential to reach as tall as their Californian counterparts if left undisturbed from bushfire, pests and disease, or trampling by tourism.The site has become a popular tourist destination in the Great Otway National Park and has also been classified as a...

Australia: Into The Outback

Traveling Australia: We leave Queensland's tropical coast and head southwest to Mareeba, Granite Gorge, and Chillagoe. The landscape changes dramatically within 200 km, as the drive inland takes you into the beginning of the outback. The scenery is mesmerizing with striking red earth and soft green eucalypts against a backdrop of vivid blue sky.

3 Days in Australia's Red Centre

An Australian's quintessential travel bucket list: Yes, I'm ashamed to say that I meet tourists who have seen more of my country than I have. So a few years ago, I wrote down my down-right-un-Australian-not-to-have list or DRUANTH-List. Not to be confused (or auto-corrected) with Draught... I'm a pale ale kinda gal! Now all I have to do, is experience it. So here is the 2nd of my bucket list... Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon. The trifecta of Australia's red centre icons.

Welcome to Alice Springs in the Northern Territory Australia. Our first stop is the Desert Park. This park was created to show you the three different types of ecosystems that are in the Red Center of the Northern Territory. Desert and Rivers, Sand Country and Wood Lands.

Next up is Simpsons Gap. This is a very popular spot outside of Alice Springs. It took water 65 millions years to make it through the gap.

This is the Standley Chasm, it's a gorge that is 5 meters in width, and 75 meters in height. The best time to come is mid-day so you can see the sun shining through the gorge.

Now for the fun part! Feeding rock wallabies at the Heavy Tree Gap Lodge. This is the only place in Alice Springs where you can do this.

Lastly we take a hot air balloon flight with Outback Balloons. This is the best way to see the Red Center.
