Let's Explore Australia - The Big Lap - Day 103 - Kakadu to Elsey

Day 103 - Kakadu to Elsey This adventure took place in the latter half of 2024. Come with me on a zig-zag tour of the country — an inside lap, an outside lap, the inner and outer corners, the extremities, the highs and the lows, the good roads, the bad roads and sometimes not even any roads at all. Day 103 starts deep inside Kakadu at Karnamarr Campground, the old base for Jim Jim and Twin Falls. From there I head out along the access track, first to Twin Falls, then back across to Jim Jim Falls, before making the long run back out to the highway. I stop at Mirray Lookout, fuel up in Katherine, and finish the day with a night run down the Stuart Highway to Sterling Mill Rest Area for an overnighter. 00:00 Intro 01:13 Jim-Jim and Twin Falls Access Track 07:40 Twin Falls Access Track 13:17 Twin Falls 18:54 Jim Jim Creek Picnic Area 23:13 Jim-Jim Falls 34:04 Mirray Lookout 39:06 Katherine 54:37 Sterling Mill Rest Area The Days Drive: 440.7km @ 55km/h over 7h54m gave 13.7l/100 Terrain: On Road - 237.7km (91.0%), Off Road - 23.4km (9.0%) Fuel: 99.82L @ $1.82/L = $181.58 Elevation: Max - 204.6m, Rate - 3.1m/km Curve Density: 10.8°/km Coverage: Telstra - 206km (79%), Optus - 185km (71%), Vodafone - 168km (64%) https://kakadu.gov.au/ https://kakadu.gov.au/stay/camping-ca... https://kakadu.gov.au/things-do/activ... https://www.matarankaroadhouse.com.au...
