The Hale River is a river in the southeast of Australia’s Northern Territory. Most of the year, however, it has no water.
The river rises at The Garden on the north slopes of Mount Laughlen in the MacDonnell Ranges about 60 km (37 mi) northeast of Alice Springs and flows from there to the southeast along the north side of the MacDonnell Ranges. Most of its water seeps away in the western part of the Simpson Desert. Only in very wet years does it continue its course south and flows south of the border to South Australia, in Witjira National Park, into the Finke River.[1]
The Todd River mostly seeps away near the Hale River in the Simpson Desert. It only overflows into the Hale River in very wet years.
