Katherine Gorge

Katherine Gorge, also known as Nitmiluk National Park, is a stunning series of 13 deep, sandstone-walled pools and narrow water channels carved by the Katherine River in Australia's Northern Territory. Surrounded by rugged cliffs and lush landscape, it offers breathtaking scenery and diverse wildlife. Visitors can explore via boat cruises, kayak trips, or walking trails, experiencing the area's natural beauty and cultural significance, particularly to the Indigenous Jawoyn people who consider it sacred. The gorge's dramatic geology and vibrant ecosystem make it a popular destination for outdoor adventure and nature appreciation.
