Leliyn (Edith Falls)

The upper falls and plunge pool

Much of the walk is very rocky, I was so glad for my Merrells once again!

These falls and gorge are located on the western boundary of Nitmiluk Park and about 40kms  north from Katherine.
We arrived quite late about 6pm but just in time for the beautiful sunset. The falls and swimming hole is very close to the camp ground and we decided the next day to do the longer 3km hike up to the upper falls and plunge pool.

The next morning we got going early with our swim suits and hike up hill to the upper falls and pool. They were wonderful and we both enjoyed the swim even though it was a little chilly for Lloyd to stay in too long. There are so many great photos from this and the walk back, here a few.
