Elsey National Park

Loved this. Much nicer campsites than the nearby caravan parks if you prefer space and bush. Not as close to thermal springs but right on the river for interesting walks.

What an amazing place in the Northern Territory. We spent the first part of the morning swimming at Bitter Springs which I highly recommend. It is like something you see on TV! You don’t need to travel out of Australia to enjoy something so magical and beautiful. Water is clear. There’s a nice currant which can take you downstream if you wish to float and relax. Ample parking. Not too far to walk to the springs. Toilets are near car park.

Worth the visit. Book the campsite online. The small walks ( Botanic loop, Aboriginal campsite, river sites) are worth the time. I liked Bitter Springs and the We Of Never Never film set. Mataranka museum was good and films "We of the Never Never" every day.

Sort of like stepping in time machine and going to prehistoric kingdom only difference is no dinos. Unique experience would definitely recommend. Be aware though there may be 1000s of bats

Gorgeous thermal springs... incredible water so clear. The pools actually snake down 150m or so, so there's loads of space even if it gets busy. Easy entry/exit steps. Bring a noodle or tube so you can relax while the (mild) current takes you down to the end.

Loved our stay here, a bit dusty but the springs are just wonderful medicine

Top place. Good caravan park at bitter springs and beautiful area. The natural spring is top notch

What an amazing area. Bitter Springs are amazing. Camping at Jalmurak camp ground was very nice.

It was so peaceful in so many spots. I can't wait to go back again and camp.

An amazing experience floating down the springs with a pool noodle and If you have goggles you can see fish, the water is so clear if you are looking from out of the water you can easily see the bottom

The perfect place for a beautiful cool peaceful day!!

Just keep away from the crocks. Fresh water ones are supposedly safe if you don't antagonise them.

Nice park

Bitter Springs Thermal pool is fantastic

Loved the short walk to the thermal pool! I will definitely come back again.

Awesome spot great swim down the creek

Awesome little place to come visit for a swim. They have camping grounds but we stayed in a room here.

Stayed at Bitter Springs Caravan Park. Nice, spot, within walking distance of the springs where you can swim. Hire a noodle and float down the springs. Clean amenities, water and power.

Amazingly beautiful place. Bitter Springs Caravan Park great. Plenty of shade under beautiful rainforest canopy with short walk to Bitter Springs. This one of the most beautiful natural places we have been to.

Well worth a stopover to experience the fun and freedom of swimming in the warm thermal water at Bitter Springs and Mataranka Thermal Pool. It is also worth exploring the John Hauser Drive through the park.
