您是热忱的丛林漫步者吗?是无畏的探险家吗?这是一个丛林漫步的天堂。不管您的体质水平怎样,在凯瑟琳,总有一种适合的步行活动等您来体验。

多种多样的选择

在这个地区的六座国家公园里,包含了十几个自然公园、自然保护区和保护地。仅仅尼特米鲁克国家公园一处,就有一百多公里蜿蜒盘旋的步道。这里有多种多样的短途步行活动供您选择,从40分钟漫步到全天远足,应有尽有。你还可以拿起背包,多日跋涉。纪特布拉路径穿过尼特米鲁克国家公园,全程耗时4到5天。这条步道声名远播,对于任何一位热诚的远足爱好者来说,它都是不可错过的。

体验内陆风情

在尼特米鲁克峡谷及其周边地区,如果您进行一番步行或远足,就能近距离欣赏当地野生动物和独特的北领地风光。沿途可以观看凤头鹦鹉,或追踪沙袋鼠。在较长的路径上,您可以露营、游泳或垂钓,也可以找一处河流或水塘歇下脚,享用一顿野外午餐。这里有古代岩画、迷人的瀑布和风光旖旎的岩石地貌可供欣赏。这片大陆多姿多彩、生气勃勃,当您在这里远足时,要做好准备,每一个拐弯处都可能突现辽远而独特的景致,让人惊叹不已。

前期准备

尼特米鲁克国家公园的游客中心向游客提供地形图、小册子和步行信息,以帮助他们完成短途步行和多日远足。参加多日远足的游客需要在这里登记。短途步行适合大部分体质水平,至于较长的路线,尤其是穿越纪特布拉路径的路线,则要求高水平的体质和耐力。

时间选择

内陆地区的阳光可能很毒辣,而雨季会使河水上涨,带来危险。五月到九月期间,气候较为寒冷干燥,最适合进行步行活动。切记带上足够的饮用水。要穿结实的鞋子,戴上帽子,还要抹上大量的防晒霜。

The moderate Baruwei Loop Walk continues on from the lookout along the escarpment and back down towards the visitor centre. It’s 4.8km return.

Go underground at the Cutta Cutta Caves

Take the winding boardwalk down through the Cutta Cutta Caves, one of Australia’s only tropical limestone cave systems, 22km south of Katherine.

See fascinating stalactites of all shapes and sizes sprouting from the ceiling and crystals that look like spun sugar adorning the walls. The caves shelter the rare ghost bat and horseshoe bat. Guided one-hour tours run daily.
