Katherine to Western Australia

Sights in Katherine To Western Australia

  1. Victoria River Crossing

    The low sandstone cliffs surrounding this spot where the highway crosses the Victoria River (194km west of Katherine) create a dramatic setting. Much of this area forms the eastern section of Gregory National Park. The Victoria River Roadhouse Caravan Park, west of the bridge, has a shop, bar and meals ($10 to $29).

  2. Flora River Nature Park

    Limestone tufa (spongy rock) outcrops form bars across the mineral-rich Flora River, acting as dams; the effect is a series of pretty cascades running with glowing blue-green water. Within Flora River Nature Park there's a camping ground at Djarrung with an amenities block. The Flora River has crocs, so there's no swimming.

    The park turn-off is 90km southwest of Katherine; the park entrance is a further 32km along a passable dirt road (OK for 2WD cars in the Dry).
