Travel Memories: Litchfield National Park NT

 

 

 

 

Florence Falls, Litchfield National Park NT
Time for another trip down memory lane.
 
 
Litchfield National Park is another one of our "best places" to visit  in the Northern Territory.
It is near the town of Batchelor 100km south of Darwin so it is the perfect place to pop into if we are going up to the airport, or when these photos were taken, towing the caravan on holiday. We set up at Batchelor Caravan Park on the grass,  a luxury in the dry season, put out the solar panels and saved ourselves a few dollars each night on peak time powered site fees. Stayed a couple of days and drove in to the park each day. There are lots of places to go in the park but we love these two the best.

Florence Falls is spectacular, although each time I have to brace myself for the very long set of steps down and the even longer is seems steps up. I reckon someone has it in for me. All the good places require me to climb steps. Up is bad enough, but down does not very nice things to my brain.
Florence Falls, double waterfalls, great swim

We love Buley Rockhole where we sat in the various pools and let the water flow over and past us.




We grabbed lunch at the Batchelor Buttefly Farm and Tea House. Great Food and a walk through butterfly aviary. There was even be a turtle in the one of the ponds.



Good memories
