Information

Katherine Gorge, within Nitmiluk National Park, is a spectacular series of 13 gorges carved by the Katherine River through ancient sandstone country. Towering cliffs, rocky escarpments and secluded beaches line the river, with the gorge system extending for many kilometres upstream. Visitors can explore by boat, canoe or walking trails, with swimming permitted in designated areas when conditions allow. The area is culturally significant to the Jawoyn people and is also home to freshwater and saltwater crocodiles.
