CHAPTER eight

The Top End

Alice Springs to Darwin to Kakadu

We board the rugged Ghan for the journey to Darwin, stopping en route in Katherine for a boat tour of the gorges. We see the sights of Darwin, and take day trips to Litchfield and the Territory Wildlife Park. We then head east to Kakadu for a 5-day stay in Australia’s largest national park.
