The Garden (pastoral station)

The Garden is a property located 117 kilometres north east of Alice Springs in the Northern Territory of Australia. It is run by Andy Hayes. The Hayes' run both Hereford and Droughtmaster cattle on the 2,134 square kilometre property.

In the 1940s a large poll shorthorn cattle herd was kept on the station.

The Trephina Gorge Nature Park, which includes the popular tourist attractions Trephina Gorge and John Hayes Waterhole were formerly part of The Garden. The park was protected from 1965 and was then handed back to the Aboriginal traditional owners on 12 June 2009.

Quad-biking tours currently operate on the station.
