Nature & Wildlife, Katherine region, Northern Territory, Australia

The Northern Territory's vast Katherine region encompasses landscapes as diverse as rocky escarpments, savannah woodlands, soaring gorges and abundant waterways. These varied habitats mean the region is also abundant in an array of flora and fauna.

And there are plenty of opportunities to surrender yourself to the sounds of nature and watch Australia's creatures come out to play.

The region sweeps between the eastern and western borders of the Northern Territory, with six national parks and 10 nature reserves in between. The best known is Nitmiluk National Park, site of the mighty Katherine Gorge. Take a bushwalk and see Australian wildlife up close, or peer from afar on an elegant cruise down the Katherine River.

Beautifully put together video. Very nice to see that reptiles were also showcased as part of the wildlife, just a shame that the Cane Toad has had such a devastating effect on the wildlife of the Top End
