About Nitmulik National Park (Katherine Gorge)
There are many ways to experience the spectacular Nitmiluk National Park (Katherine Gorge) and its world-renowned gorge system - you can walk, swim, canoe, boat or fly.
Walks over the sandstone plateau range from an hour to 5 days and offer spectacular views of the Gorge, as well as other landscapes and habitats. Some, like the 66 kilometre Jatbula Trail, take in most of Nitmiluk's habitats - monsoon rainforest, stone country, upland swamp, woodland and river – while the shorter walks may not be quite so varied, but are always spectacular. Rivers rising during December to April, restrict all activities but there is always something to do. Swimming and canoeing are generally only activities for May to November. Leliyn (Edith Falls) is another spectacular sight, well worth a visit.
