The tiny township of Ti Tree, 314 kilometres south of Tennant Creek, is home of the Anmatjere people and services several Aboriginal communities, including Utopia, which is renowned for its art. The Red Sands Art Gallery is a respected gallery and one of the best places to acquire some Utopian art.

Ti Tree is also an unlikely agricultural centre producing significant crops of table grapes and melons thanks to the abundant sunshine and huge underground water resources. Ti Tree roadhouse offers fuel and basic provisions for travellers between Alice Springs and Tennant Creek.
