Crystal Falls
About
The Crystal Falls area features a mass of rock pools, rapids, and small cascades that fall away into a spectacular and large waterfall. The area can only be reached by trekking the iconic Jatbula Trail.
Located within Nitmiluk National Park (Katherine Gorge), this 58-kilometre trail takes between four to five days to complete.
The Jatbula Trail is a challenging but rewarding hike, with stunning scenery and plenty of opportunities to swim in cool waterfalls and natural pools. The trail winds its way through the Nitmiluk Gorge, which is home to towering cliffs, lush rainforests, and ancient Aboriginal rock art.
One of the highlights of the Jatbula Trail is the Crystal Falls area. This section of the trail is particularly scenic, with a series of rock pools, rapids, and small cascades that lead up to the main waterfall. The waterfall itself is impressive, with a powerful torrent of water cascading over a cliff edge into a crystal-clear pool below.
If you're planning on hiking the Jatbula Trail, be sure to pack plenty of water and food, as there are no facilities along the trail. The trail is also best hiked during the dry season (May to September) when the weather is cooler and there is less risk of mosquitoes.
