Nitmiluk National Park, Nature reserve in Northern Territory, Australia.
The national park spans 1,000 square kilometers, featuring deep sandstone gorges carved by the Katherine River through ancient geological formations.
The park received official national park designation in 1989, marking a significant step in protecting the natural environment of the Northern Territory.
The Jawoyn people maintain their traditional connection to the land through rock art sites, cultural activities, and sharing their knowledge with visitors.
Visitors can access two separate sections: the Katherine Gorge area 30 kilometers northeast of Katherine and Leliyn Falls 60 kilometers north.
The park contains thirteen separate gorges with water pools, supporting freshwater crocodiles and offering natural swimming locations during the dry season.
