Best Things To Do In Katherine

Katherine is ideally located on the Stuart Highway, just 3 hours south of Darwin. Katherine is known as the crossroads of the north. It is the pivot point for travellers making their way north-south between Darwin, NT and Adelaide, SA, or east-west along the Savannah Way ‘Australia’s Adventure Drive‘ from Cairns, Qld to Broome, WA.

Katherine is within a few hours drive of some of the Top End’s most sensational natural landscapes including the Kakadu, Litchfield and Gregory National Parks as well as the magnificent Nitmiluk (Katherine Gorge) National Park, Borroloora and the Gulf Region across the Roper River – Elsey National Park, Mataranka Thermal Pools, Victoria River Region, Pine Creek and the Douglas and Daly River hinterlands.

The Katherine Region is adventure territory, stretching from Dunmarra in the south, to the Daly River in the north. From east to west we embrace the Queensland and Western Australian boarders and cover a total of 480,000 square kilometres.
