Out Backing The Australian Landscape
Lonely Planet Asia|March 2017

Journey across the outback Australian landscape the way it’s supposed to be done.

Out Backing The Australian Landscape

Nature’s Way, Northern Territory

Nature’s Way is a seven-day drive and cruise adventure that one can embark on from Darwin, the largest city in Australia’s Northern Territory. The 735 kilometre drive begins in Darwin through the World Heritage listed Kakadu National Park and Nitmiluk National Parks and onto Litchfield National Park. Amateur anthropologists would be thrilled to learn that Kakadu is actually home to some of the world’s oldest aboriginal rock art galleries which are accessible by car or marked walking trails. Don’t miss out also on the opportunity to visit Katherine Gorge located within the Nitmiluk National Park. The gorge offers a series of clear pools fed by a natural thermal spring which are sure to revive tired souls after a long day of arduous driving. Options to explore the park via a helicopter ride, canoe or on foot are also available. A change of temperature can be found when one journeys onto Litchfield National Park renowned for its monsoon rainforests and waterfalls which flow all year round. Enjoy a swim in the pandanus-fringed plunge pool of Edith Falls that are sure to cool you off.

Extraordinary Places To Stay: Spring B&Bs

Every avid traveller knows the definition of a bed and breakfast, and a night’s stay can end in two scenarios. The former being a faultless stay in the perfect room, adequate furnishings, clean beddings and friendly hosts accompanied with a wonderful breakfast spread. The latter probably least ideal - a crossroad between a shabby and derelict façade, unpleasant musky scents alongside bedding that seem to cry for a desperate wash. Whatever the price point, there should be no need to compromise on quality. Here are our round-ups of some exquisite spring bed and breakfast options.
