Katherine

Just a five minute walk from our campsite is the Katherine River. Such a beautiful spot. If you look carefully at the river gums you can see flood debris about 10 metres up in their branches.

A little further up the river are the hot springs. Very pleasant.

We spent an afternoon exploring Cutter Cutter caves – 1,499 hectacres of limestone landscape. The rock formations were beautiful.

The highlight for us was our time spent at Edith Falls. The hike in was challenging as much of the track was steep and rocky, however, the falls are stunning.

We went to the Sunday service at St Paul’s Anglican Church in Katherine. Pleased to say the gospel of Jesus was faithfully preached. Simon Hattrell is the locum and made us welcome. He is 78 and has been even busier in his retirement than when he oversaw his own churches. While the congregation was small (about 30), the church is active in the community.
