One Gorge Tour

Substitute experience when the 2 Gorge Tour cannot operate due to river levels and wet season conditions

 

AVAILABILITY

The Green Season 1 Gorge Cruise is offered as a substitute experience when the 2 Gorge Tour cannot operate due to river levels and wet season conditions.

We strongly recommend contacting our Reservations Team prior to travel to confirm which tours are operating during the wet season.

Overview

The Green Season 1 Gorge Cruise is a 1.5-hour experience through the stunning First Gorge of Nitmiluk Gorge, offering visitors the opportunity to explore the dramatic sandstone cliffs, rich wildlife, and cultural significance of Jawoyn Country during the tropical Green Season.

During this time of year, river levels fluctuate depending on rainfall both locally and across the wider catchment area. As a result, access to the Second Gorge is not always possible due to flooded walkways, and tours may operate exclusively within the First Gorge. Despite this, the experience remains spectacular, with lush landscapes, flowing waterfalls, and vibrant scenery unique to the Green Season.

Notes

  • Guests should allow approximately 30 minutes’ drive from Katherine township to reach Nitmiluk National Park.

  • Please note that Edith Falls (Leliyn) is located on the opposite side of the National Park and is approximately 1.5 hours away by road.

  • Boarding and registration for all cruises and activities generally commence 20–30 minutes prior to departure.
