LITCHFIELD National Park
9 day tour
Quand :
Please contact us with the dates that work best for you.
Où : Litchfield National Park - Top End - Northern Territory - Australia. (Parc national de Litchfield - Région du Top End - Territoires du Nord - Australie)
Litchfield National Park is situated 100 km from Darwin. Most people, not to say everybody, is visiting the North area. I would like to offer you to discover the Southern remote part of the National Park.
Durée : 9 jours / 8 nuits
Points forts : Tjaynera falls and creek, Red Rock and Mistake creeks, Tableland falls and creek, Aboriginal Art Sites
Langue : Anglais et Français
This 9 days, 8-night tour will lead us to the less travelled parts of Litchfield NP from the iconic Tjaynera Falls to Tableland Falls. We will explore a wild, untouched world of creeks, swimming holes, cascades and gorges. Along the way, we will also have the chance to admire a few Aboriginal art sites.
Start: Darwin
Finish: Darwin
The expedition starts at 7:30 a.m. on the date nominated. We will travel 2 hours by 4WD to explore Sandy Creek during the dry season or Lost City during the wet season deep into the Litchfield National Park.
We can expect to encounter day trippers at Sandy Creek and Surprise Falls during the dry season, but as we walk out of these sites, we leave the crowds behind and enter a world only a few will see. For 9 days, we will explore 4 creeks: Tjaynera, Red Rock, Mistake and Tableland streams.
We will be walking approximately 5 – 10 km per day. I plan to leave camp at 8:30 a.m. each morning. Our day will start early to avoid walking in the day's heat. We will return to camp around 3:30 p.m.
The weather in the area varies during the dry season. We can expect the daytime temperatures to climb beyond 35°C, whereas the temperature can hopefully be much more relaxed during the evening.
Inclusions :
4WD transport. Pick up and drop off at your place (Darwin and Palmerston areas)
Evening 3-course meal and hot water in the morning.
Un guide bilingue et expérimenté

9 day tour
DESCRIPTION PHOTO
Litchfield National Park is a surprising world with two distinct areas. To the north is the tourist portion with the busy Wangi and Florence Falls.
We will go where others do not go. To the south, the wild landscapes will slowly be discovered to the rhythm of our steps. It is a trip to the heart of the wildest area of this national park that is proposed to you.
We will discover four rivers overlooked by tour operators. They are Litchfield's best-kept secrets.
This 9 days / 8 nights tour begins in Tjaynera Falls.
It finishes at Tableland Falls in the South of Litchfield National Park.
On the first day, we will reach our starting point at Sandy Creek and bathe in the majestic Tjaynera Falls basin.
And then walk to our camp, located near a small waterfall with natural charm. We will stay two nights in the same place.
On the second day in the morning, we will explore the surroundings of our camp in search of rock art sites. In the afternoon, I suggest that you store your daypacks in waterproof bags because we will need to swim to return to our camp. Nous consacrerons nos journées à marcher, nager et profiter des eaux turquoises et transparentes de la rivière Tjaynera
flowing slowly through small gorges with a serene atmosphere, forming long pools that are very pleasant to discover by swimming. You don't have to be a good swimmer, and you can stop for a rest wherever you want.
I will provide a waterproof bag for your day pack on this trip.
On the third day, we will reach the dizzying heights of Tjaynera Falls,
cross the open forest of an eroded plateau and fields of spear grass yellowed by the dry season. We will camp at the edge of pools fed by some languid cascades.
Along the way, we will have the chance to admire some Aboriginal Art sites. I discovered these sites during some personal exploration. Litchfield sandstone is renowned for not retaining traces of Aboriginal paintings, making art sites very rare in this region.
On the fourth day, we will cross the Reynolds River and then climb on a plateau where eucalyptus, spear grasses and termite mounds form a typical landscape of the region. We will camp by the crystal-clear waters of the Red Rock River.
The fifth day will be spent exploring Red Rock Creek and some tributaries. We will set up our camp near a waterfall.
On the sixth day, we will follow Mistake Creek,
to a small rainforest.
On the seventh day, we will walk through the Savannah forest to join the course of the Tableland River and set up our camp near a cascade.
The eighth day will be entirely devoted to exploring the Tableland River, whose countless pools, cascades and waterfalls are a real swimming invitation,
Jusqu'à ce que nous atteignions le dernier bassin
And the waterfall of Tableland Creek.

On the ninth day, we will be headed to the South-East part of the national park to complete our walk.
