Edith Falls (Leliyn)
Leliyn
Waterfalls and a broad natural swimming pool at the northwest corner of Nitmiluk, plus a loop trail to quieter upper pools.
Located in the northwest of Nitmiluk National Park, about 60 kilometers from Katherine, reached by turning off the Stuart Highway. Beneath the falls is a wide natural pool where you can swim directly. Following the roughly 2.6-kilometer Leliyn loop trail up the hillside takes you to quieter upper falls pools with panoramic views. There is a campground, a small shop and a picnic area, and entry is free. During the wet season the swimming area is often closed due to crocodile patrols or flooding, so check park notices before setting out.
