Discover the Wonders of Litchfield National Park

Sunday July 5, 2009
Closer to Darwin than either Kakadu or Katherine Gorge, the Northern Territory's Litchfield National Park is arguably a more convenient daytrip destination.

Litchfield National Park is, of course, known for its amazing magnetic termite mounds, but you'll also find there numerous waterfalls dropping from the sandstone plateau known as the Tabletop Range and the weathered sandstone pillars which as a group comprise The Lost City, much like the ancient ruins of some fabled land.

Iwas on an excursion to see the mounds and waterfalls in early April 2009.We were on a bus for one and half hours to get there and the same to return there was nothing interesting to see on the way or return trip.The cost was One Hundred Sixty Four Dollars and was no way worth the money. however we did have a nice lunch.
