Gotta love “winter” in @tourismtopend ☀💦 Located only 40 minutes north of @visitkatherine in Nitmiluk National Park, #EdithFalls (Leliyn) is truly nature at its finest 🌿 Captured here, the upper pool is the epitome of wild swimming with cool cascades and pretty bushland surrounds - well worth the 2.6km loop walk! With a grassy campground and kiosk onsite, there's every reason to stick around and enjoy this gorgeous location.

Gorge yourself on adventure in @VisitKatherine's Nitmiluk National Park 🛶 Whether you're looking for an easy paddle or something more challenging, you can't beat hitting the river for an up-close view of #NitmilukGorge.

Welcome to Umbrawarra Gorge Nature Park, a beautiful isolated gorge with steep red cliffs and meandering creek on Wagiman country 🧡 Visit in the early to mid dry season (May-August) when you can be sure the creek is flowing and you can swim in the rocky pools and enjoy the sandy beach 🏖 The park is located about 115 kilometres from #Katherine, with a small campground only a short distance from the gorge entrance. Cheers for tagging #NTaustralia, @linda.ventures. #SeeAustralia #TourismTopEnd #holidayherethisyear

A true blue outback stop 🤠 The @DalyWatersPub is a colourful pub, clad in corrugated iron, draped with bougainvillea and crammed with decades of memorabilia.

Exotic overseas destination? Nup, this is #BitterSprings in @visitkatherine! 😍 These crystal clear hot springs are located in Elsey National Park, just two kilometres from #Mataranka and a one-hour drive south of #Katherine. The colours of this spot are almost edible, with decadent turquoise blues from the springs set against the alluring green foliage of surrounding tropical woodlands. Feel like a float? Bring a pool noodle and enjoy a short and relaxing natural ride down the stream 💦 Captured here by @salt.and.charcoal, the springs are once again open for swimming, following the wet tropical summer months. Cheers for tagging #NTaustralia, @salt.and.charcoal. #SeeAustralia #TourismTopEnd #VisitKatherine #holidayherethisyear

Chasing waterfalls on a Wednesday, or really any day ending in 'y', is one of our favourite pastimes here in the NT 💚 #SouthernRockhole is a beautiful seasonal swimming hole at Nitmiluk (Katherine) Gorge, accessible via an 8 kilometre (return) walking trail or by ferry with @nitmiluktours. Picture 50 shades of green, the inviting sparkle of crystal-clear water and the peaceful hum of a running waterfall 💧 Cheers for tagging #NTaustralia, @jessicamcaneney. #SeeAustralia #TourismTopEnd #VisitKatherine #NitmilukNT

We're feeling the tropical vibes at #MatarankaThermalPool 🌴 Located one hour south of @VisitKatherine, the unofficial gateway to the tropics, these stunning springs bubble up at 34 degrees to fill a semi-man made pool of perfectly turquoise water under a shady canopy of stretching palms.

Welcome to @VisitKatherine's very own piece of tropical summer paradise - #SouthernRockhole 💚 Take the Windolf walk from Nitmiluk (#Katherine) Gorge car park, venturing 4 kilometres through tropical savannah before arriving at this stunning seasonal waterfall.
