Lift off from the helipad inside Nitmiluk National Park and track across the full 13-gorge system, following the Katherine River through towering sandstone escarpments and remote country.

You will marvel the views over Jedda’s Rock, Butterfly Gorge, and Lily Ponds, before heading over towards the 8th Gorge cascades and many other stunning waterfalls. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife such as crocodiles and buffalo as you soar over the lesser-known corners of the park beyond the 13th gorge.

Beyond the standard scenic route, the helicopter continues deeper into the gorge before descending at a secluded Aboriginal rock art site of cultural significance. Here, your pilot guides you through a series of ancient rock faces, offering insight into the stories and enduring presence of culture within this landscape.

This experience combines dramatic aerial perspective with respectful, on-ground access to a site few visitors will ever reach
