This is a brilliant area to do some 4X4 driving as it is a national park and there was so much to do. We holidayed up there a few years ago and it was so much fun. There are about 5 roads to remember and I have looked them up for you. From Batchelor a small town south of Darwin, you take Litchfield Park road, Reynolds River track, Daly River road, Dorat road and Stuart Highway. We spent over a week at this National Park visiting the sites and I got to go through my first ever river crossing which was bloody excellent. I have included some pics from the area.

DATE	VEHICLE USED	DRIVER	NOTES
2008-10-12	Jeep Wrangler Unlimited	sunburn	The Reynolds River is a Fun track. Did just after the first rain fell for the wet season. 3 river crossings. The first one heading from inside the park towards the exit was the fullest but still only 60cm. The second one is an S bend shape and was pretty empty when we went through but I can see that it would be interesting during the wet season! Good track for beginners in the dry. Can't really comment on in the wet but the signs there say you may need a snorkel.
2005-05-25	Toyota Prado	mprice2233
2004-06-15	Toyota Landcruiser	barry.gange	Fantastic area to visit.
1997-02-02	Nissan Patrol	Guyjin	Spectacular in the wet season - and no crowds of people to contend with.
