Katherine Region, Adventure experiences in Australia




Title:
Katherine Region, Adventure experiences in Australia

Description:
Some of Australia's best walking and hiking trails can be found in the Northern Territory's Katherine region. And Jatbula Trail is the best of the best. Meandering through Nitmiluk National Park, it's 58 kilometres long and takes in one of the world's largest collections of Aboriginal rock art. Trekkers can refresh with a swim at the famous Katherine Gorge and rejuvenate under Leliyn/Edith Falls. There are various camping locations along the way, all well equipped with barbecue facilities. Take a leaf out of the books of the early settlers and recover from your adventure with a visit to Mataranka and Bitter Springs thermal hot springs, where you can float all day and soak your tired muscles.
