Katherine

The outback town of Katherine, just three hours south of Darwin, is often described as the place ‘where the outback meets the tropics’.

This region is home to the majestic Katherine Gorge in the Nitmiluk National Park; 13 spectacular sandstone gorges that are best experienced on a boat cruise, in a canoe or from above in a helicopter.

This region is famous for:

  • Katherine Gorge
  • River fishing
  • Mataranka Thermal Pool
  • Daly Waters Pub
  • Springvale Homestead
