Katherine Gorge Campground - Nitmiluk NP is where the Territory reveals itself. Camping here puts you right in the lush Top End — ancient Kakadu wetlands, thundering Litchfield waterfalls, and some of the most biodiverse landscapes on the planet. Whether you're in a swag under the stars or a full setup with powered sites, the experience is uniquely NT — wide open spaces, wildlife at your doorstep, and the kind of peace you simply cannot find in the city. Accessible and well-maintained, with facilities for most camping styles.
Plan your visit
