Katherine & Umgebung

When the scenes underwater are just as stunning as the one's above the surface! @cleocohen recently stopped by Bitter Springs, one of the most magical swimming spots in #TourismTopEnd! Hidden amongst palms and pandanas trees, this natural thermal pool is known for its ridiculously clear water and constant temperature of 32 degrees celsius. This little oasis is tucked away in the small township of Mataranka, an hour south of #Katherine and four hours’ south of #Darwin. Cheers for tagging #NTaustralia, Cleo! #SeeAustralia #TourismTopEnd

Row, row, row your boat... to relaxation! Welcome to @lorellaspringswildernesspark, a million acre coastal wilderness sanctuary in the Gulf of Carpentaria. Historical sites, aboriginal culture, swimming holes, gorges and the spectacular Lost City rock formations are just some of the features that make this family-owned cattle station a must-do. Base yourself at the homestead where you can take your pick of various accommodation options, grab a meal at the licensed bar and make the most of the magical hot springs just 200 metres away. Prepare to ditch your mobile - due to the park's remote location, there's no phone reception 👉 it's the ultimate place to disconnect! Cheers for tagging #NTaustralia, @mitch.toft.  #SeeAustralia

We're all about #vanlife in the Northern Territory and where better to hit the road than the Red Centre 🙌🚗 @elisehalina recently travelled around central @Australia, ticking #Uluru off her bucket list in style! While this magnificent monolith is pretty epic from any angle, nothing prepares you for those first views of Uluru up close - its sheer size is mesmerising! There's a heap of ways to explore the base... from hiring a bike with @outbackcycling to hopping on a segway tour with @ulurusegwaytours or on foot 👍 Cheers for tagging #NTaustralia, Elise! #SeeAustralia #RedCentreNT

If you haven't been to the Red Centre before it might surprise you how many spectacular swimming spots there are around #AliceSprings. @mitch.toft recently stopped by Ellery Creek Big Hole, a stunning waterhole in the mighty Ellery Creek which cuts through a gorge in the West MacDonnell Ranges. Massive floods over thousands of years have carved out this permanent waterhole and unlocked some amazing geology. While the water is a bit chilly at this time of year, you can pull up a piece of sand with a packed lunch...the view isn't bad 😍 Cheers for tagging #NTaustralia, Mitch!  #SeeAustralia #RedCentreNT

Secret rock pools surrounded by tropical woodlands high above a waterfall... sounds terrible, right?! 😜 There are a number of popular swimming spots in #Litchfield National Park but not many people know about Tjaetaba Falls. These little known pools can be reached via the Greenant Creek Walk, a 2.7km return trail that follows the creek upstream before climbing steeply up to the lookout. If you’re visiting, please take note of signage - swimming isn’t allowed in the plunge pool at the base of the falls for cultural reasons.
