The Never Never Region

This area of the Northern Territory extends from the southern boundaries of Kakadu and Arnhem Land south to the start of the Barkly Tableland.

There are no major tourist attractions to speak of, apart from the Katherine area, that are serviced and promoted by the local tourist authorities.

The area has a long history as a cattle raising area and in days long gone, some cattle properties were larger than some European countries.
