Adventure the way you want it

Timber Creek & the Victoria River

---

Judbarra/Gregory National Park

This park covers an area of about 13,000 square kilometres and features spectacular gorge scenery, rare wildlife species, and significant traces of Aboriginal culture, European exploration and pastoral history. It is divided into two separate sectors – the Victoria River sector in the east and the Gregory sector in the west.

The Victoria River sector is near the Victoria River Crossing and winds through 250-metre-high tablelands, creating dramatic red cliffs.

The large Gregory sector lies just outside Timber Creek. Here, Limestone Gorge provides superb photographic opportunities.

Those with a four-wheel drive will love exploring the network of four-wheel drive tracks, which include the Bullita Stock route, the Humbert Track, Tuwakam Track, the Wickham and Gibbie Tracks and the Broadarrow Track. For more information, contact the Parks and Wildlife office at Timber Creek (08) 8975 0888.

Keep River National Park
