Day 1 - Darwin to Katherine
Gorge and return
Leaving Darwin we travel south
through tropical country, passing former WWII airstrips en
route to Adelaide River.
We make a short stop at the
Adelaide River War Cemetery, a site dedicated to those killed
in the air raids in Darwin in the 1940's.
Continue to Edith Falls, where
there is time for a refreshing swim.
After lunch (available for
purchase) we join a 2 hour scenic cruise through Katherine
Gorge (seasonal) in Nitmiluk National Park, with a chance
to see fresh water crocodiles sunning themselves on the banks
of the river.
Our tour of the first two gorges
takes us past sheer rock walls and requires a short walk to
reach the second gorge.
Enjoy a brief tour of Katherine,
the third largest town in the Territory and hub of the region's
cattle and farming industries.
Travel via Pine Creek where
we see old chinese diggings and historical buildings, before
an evening stop is made at Adelaide River where you may purchase
