#37. Cutta Cutta Caves Nature Park
Cutta Cutta Caves Nature Park is 30km south of Katherine and spans over 1,499 hectares of unique karst limestone landscape - a rarity in Australia. These caves, forming over millions of years and still growing, lie about 15m beneath the surface. The caves house diverse native wildlife, including the orange horseshoe bat and the brown tree snake. While the park is open year-round, the caves might occasionally close due to seasonal conditions. For a taste of the natural surroundings, take the 10 to 20-minute Tropical Woodland walk starting near the car park.
