Biddlecombe Cascades are one of many beautiful swimming and sightseeing locations along the Jatbula Trail in Nitmiluk National Park (Katherine Gorge). The one way long distance walking trail is 58 kilometres long and starts at Katherine Gorge (Nitmiluk) and finishes at Leliyn / Edith Falls, usually taking trekkers four to five days to complete.
The Biddlecombe Cascades are fed by a permanently flowing creek that drops into a lovely waterfall. After walking the first day of the Jatbula Trail you will enjoy lazing about in the rock pools and rapids above the falls. This is a great way to enjoy the afternoon sunshine.
Nearby is a small campsite on sandy ground with an open fire barbecue and a toilet. The campsite is only eight kilometres from the beginning of the Trail so there is plenty if time to relax and make camp. There is also an Emergency Call Device (ECD) close to the campsite. Trekkers must register at the Nitmiluk Centre before starting the Jatbula Trail and deregister at Edith Kiosk upon return.
