πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί Darwin Travel – Nitmiluk National Park 🌿

"If you love buffalo, bring them to Nitmiluk – it’s heaven. If you hate them, stay away – it’s hell." – A Sydneysider in Nitmiluk Nitmiluk National Park, located 3.5 hours south of Darwin, borders Kakadu and is carved by rivers into stunning gorges – a paradise for canyon lovers! On the last day of our trip, we joined a guided tour to explore Nitmiluk, focusing on the Katherine Gorge boat cruise. πŸš— Journey Highlights: Stopped at Pine Tree – a quaint gold rush-era town with preserved mining machinery πŸ—οΈ. Tried homemade ice cream at a local shop – delicious! 🍦 Swam at Edith Falls – crystal-clear, refreshing waters under the sun πŸ’¦. Regret: Missed the upper falls due to time constraints 😒 🚀 Katherine Gorge Boat Cruise: Departed at 2 PM – perfect timing! Glided through serene waters between towering cliffs 🏞️. Spotted a freshwater crocodile basking on a sandbank – smaller and less aggressive than saltwater crocs 🐊. Two boat segments with a 400m jungle walk in between 🌼: Saw vibrant yellow flowers contrasting with red rocks πŸ“Έ Admired Indigenous rock art on cliffs (abstract but fascinating!) 🎨 πŸƒ Wild Buffalo Encounters: Spotted 3-4 groups of wild buffalo grazing roadside on the return trip πŸ‚. Fun fact: Buffalo were introduced from Southeast Asia post-WWII for labor, then released into the wild. Their population boomed from 80 to 150,000 – now thriving with no predators! 🌿 Final Thoughts: A cool, scenic, and utterly rewarding experience – Nitmiluk is a hidden gem worth the drive! #Nitmiluk #KatherineGorge #DarwinTravel #Australia #NatureLovers #WaterfallSwimming
