Get off the beaten track and uncover the secrets of the Top End of Australia. Over two days, together with your travel companions, you will see the vast wilderness of Nitmiluk National Park in the Northern Territory.
- Discover the Katherine River over 3 days and 2 nights
- Sleep under the stars in a traditional Aussie 'swag'
- You will be accompanied by local and experienced guides
- Spend your evenings by the campfire under a canopy of stars
Your adventure starts with a pick-up from your accommodation. No experience with kayaking or canoeing? No worries, you will be accompanied by the local and experienced guides. You will also receive plenty of instructions before you go on the water!
On the first day, you will start with a boat trip through the mystical Nitmiluk Gorge. This is where you will hop in your canoe on the mysterious water. Enjoy an exclusive picnic in a remote spot, go swimming in natural water holes and spot wildlife along the way.
After a day of discovering this remarkable landscape, it is time to unwind in nature and get ready for a night of camping. Spend your evening around the campfire, telling stories and watching the sparkling canopy of stars in the sky.
You will sleep in a swag (an outback sleeping bag)- a real Aussie experience. The next day, you can continue to soak up the timeless surroundings while paddling. Go for a cool nature swim or just stop and take in the tranquillity. In the late afternoon, you will return to your accommodation.
