We left Elsey NP behind and headed to Katherine, on arrival we headed to the National Land Council to get permits to get to Arnhem Land. Now we have our permit, we are able to drive on the road to Nhulunbuy (North East Arnhem Land). The distant is 730klm to drive and our permit gives us 4 days to get there. Once we arrived in Nhulunbuy we have to get another permit so we can camp, which we now have. When we decide to leave we have to get another permit, so we can drive on the road back to Katherine!!
I know I have said this before, however the scenery is to die for, absolutely stunning, it puts Kakadu to shame!!! We love it, we have seen wild Buffalo's, wild horses (55),we saw a snake which was a black headed Python, Cattle, Dingo's and the bird life is unbelievable, absolutely stunning!!!! In 730klm we only meant at most 20 vehicle's.
We love it!!!
There was several water crossing's, creeks, Little Goyder River crossing & Goyder River crossing, which was really deep- the camper trailer carpet only got a little wet!!!

Our Campsite for the night 400klm from Nhulunbuy, by a water hole. The first think I woke and saw was a Buffalo.....Scary!!!!!
