Limmen Bight Fishing Camp (CG)

The Limmen Bight Fishing Camp is located adjacent to the Park. The camp site is actually out of Limnen National Park. However, it still is a popular camping destination.

The Park can be accessed from Katherine by leaving the Stuart Highway about 10 km south of Mataranka and following the Roper Highway east to the Pt Roper Road, (turn-off 3 km before Roper Bar). From Borroloola follow the Carpentaria Highway for 32 km before heading north along the gravel road for another 44 km.
