In stark contrast to the Red Centre, the Top End is an explosion of lush tropical greenery boasting a vast array of flora and fauna, unmatched wildlife viewing opportunities, ancient Aboriginal culture and a great outdoors experience like no other you have known.
The small modern town of Katherine is where the outback meets the tropics. While its star attraction is undoubtedly the nearby world-famous Nitmiluk (Katherine) Gorge, the town itself offers a wide range of facilities and attractions, including museums, art galleries, quirky pubs and historic sites. Within easy reach of the town are the limestone caverns of Cutta Cutta Caves Nature...
There are distinct dry and wet seasons in this region. The wet season runs from November to April and is characterised by high humidity and monsoon storms. The dry season brings warm, dry sunny days and cool nights.
Katherine is around 3 hours drive from Darwin while Kakadu is around 1 hour 45 minutes drive from Darwin.
