Broome To Darwin: Day 4

Litchfield National Park, Australia


I love Lichfield National Park. Seriously, its awesome here, I'd even go as far as to say its better than Karijini.

  • dodges missiles thrown by WA types*


  • Oh what? Come on, WA is still my favorite state, its just that the Territory has the best National Park. I know I know, its a controversial statement but Lichfield is more accessible than Karijini and the swimming holes are slightly warmer. Just watch yourself in Florence Falls, I felt something scratch my leg and looked down and there was this little fish just looking at me. It had gone for one of the mozzy bites on my leg, apparently they're some kind of cleaning fish and they'll try and clean out any wounds that you have.

    Oh thanks, very fucking helpful! Try using cotton wool or something next time you vicious little sod.

    Lichfield is like a big, natural waterpark, Buley Rockhole is fun, its like a little cascade you can follow down, one of the pools is about 6 metres deep so you can jump in off the side. Its only a little jump though, I managed this one and at least there were no 69 year old women to put me to shame this time.

    Camping is $6.60 per person per night, we stayed at Wangi Falls because they're pretty and there's a little pool a few metres up the rock face which is a bit warmer than the rest of the plunge pool. I mean, I'm not saying you'd run your bath to that temperature but its still nice enough for you not to want to get back into the cold pool afterwards.

    I live life on the edge.

    Provided I'm harnessed to a safety rope and there's a team of trained professionals on hand to make sure I don't fall off.
