Experience the ancient grandeur of Nitmiluk Gorge from above on this 40 minute helicopter scenic flight for two, following the winding Katherine River through all 13 spectacular gorges as sandstone escarpments glow in the warm colours of a Northern Territory sunset. As you lift off and climb above the treeline, the full scale of this remarkable gorge system opens up below you, offering a perspective of the landscape that few travellers ever get to see.
The standout moment of the one hour and 40 minute journey comes when the helicopter touches down at the remote 10th Gorge, a secluded location that cannot be reached by road or walking track. Relax with a refreshing drink and nibbles as the sun drops behind the escarpment, casting deep gold and amber light across the ancient rock walls. It is a genuinely rare way to experience one of the Northern Territory's most iconic natural wonders.
