Explore the historic pioneer town of Katherine and the ancestral gorges of Nitmiluk National Park.
Some thirty kilometres away, Nitmiluk National Park — formerly known as Katherine Gorge — covers nearly 292,800 hectares. It encompasses a succession of 13 gorges, separated by rapids, carved along the Katherine River amid a striking landscape of tropical vegetation.
Bathe in the hot springs of Daly River and fish in the remote waterways of the Gulf of Carpentaria.
Spot rare wildlife and walk through the gorges of Gregory National Park in the Victoria River region, then relax in Mataranka's sandy-bottomed thermal pool.
The rugged, ancient landscapes of the Katherine region — stretching from the Gulf of Carpentaria to the Western Australia border — also invite canoeing, hiking, 4x4 driving and birdwatching.
