based on Discover Litchfield National Park, a short drive south of Darwin, and experience one of Australia's finest National parks. Litchfield is know for it's weathered sandstone escarpments, patches of monsoon rainforest, spectacular waterfalls, intriguing magnetic termite mounds, perennial spring-fed streams, permanent crystal-clear waterholes and other natural treasures. It's truly paradise on earth - or at least in Australia!
Litchfield National Park features numerous waterfalls which cascade from a sandstone plateau called the Tabletop Range, intriguing magnetic termite mounds, historical sites, and the weathered sandstone pillars of the Lost City. Your day trip to Litchfield National Park, 60 miles (100 km) south of Darwin, will see you ascend the rocky Tabletop Range, where dry woodlands and forests dominate the huge sandstone plateau.
Litchfield boasts spectacular scenery, monsoonal rainforests, spring-fed streams and waterfalls. Stop within the Park to view the intriguing giant magnetic termite mounds, some standing well over two metres tall. See the picturesque double waterfall forming over Florence Falls, surrounded by lush rainforest and cascading into a deep pool. Continue to Tolmer Falls, which cascades over two high escarpments and plunges into a deep waterhole below. Journey to the rock pool at Wangi Falls, enjoy a picnic lunch and there is time for a refreshing swim (conditions permitting) in the crystal waters at the waterfall's base. Reboard the vehicle and return to Darwin.
