Finding the right hike to do with your little ones in Katherine can be a challenge! At Gorge View Bush Retreat, we recommend to definitely do the Barrawei Lookout at Sunrise at Nitmiluk National Park. Also, the hike up to the top of Edith Falls is well worth it!Nitmiluk South Walks Map

The Katherine River Loop is great - and to rest little legs, it’s a great bike ride, and you can even stop off and have a swim in the hotsprings as part of the trip.Katherine River Loop Walk or Ride

We also recommend walking up to Pats Lookout for great photo opportunities of the Katherine Gorge, and if you’re here early in the dry season, get to Southern Rockhole for a swim. Nitmiluk Tours also offer a ferry ride to South Rockhole if hiking is just not for you. Book a Ferry Trip to Southern Rockhole
