Katherine has an airport, just 5 miles from the town, served by flights from Darwin and Alice Springs. All buses between Alice Springs and Darwin will stop in Katherine and the town is also a stop on the route taken by the Ghan train which travels from North to South of Australia (Darwin to Adelaide and vice versa).
Katherine a?" Township
The township of Katherine is the third largest town in the Northern Territory, after Darwin, a three hour drive north, and Alice Springs, and is the only town of any size between the other two. It is a busy town, where the Victoria Highway branches off to the Kimberley Region of Western Australia.
It has always been an important stopping off point on the route between the Red Centre and the Top End f the NT – the river on which the town was built and after which it is named is the first running water you come across when traveling north from Alice Springs. The town itself has some interesting buildings but it is really as the gateway to Katherine Gorge, some 19 miles to the north of the town and Nitmiluk National Park that Katherine has an attraction for the tourist.
