Depot Creek

by skatzcatz

South of Hayes Creek and off through the bush is the small and unnoticed Depot Creek. Containing swimming holes, waterfalls, great places to push a rubber tube down, Depot Creek is a place on the locals have ever known about. Possible to get to with 4wd or a long walk from the highway. Worth the trip to the bottom and the large wayerfall and possibility to sight a saltwater crocodile or two.

Yep, can't keep Ove away!! He ventured back to the scene of the crime!! ;o)

Ove came downunder again this year and joined us for the big downunder vt meet at Airlie Beach. Hubby, Zig, Ove, Rich and I hit the road from Cairns and travelled all the way across the top end back to Darwin.

Of course Ove just had to con us into stopping at Pine Creek to show Rich where he fell down the mine shaft last year. ....Of course this year Ove made sure he was decked out in his finest mining gear, complete with hard hat to ward off any unexpected incidents.... ;o)

Check out the video!!! ...lol :o)

"Depot Creek"

South of Hayes Creek, Depot Creek is one of those unnoticed beauties of the Top End. Kilometres of waterfalls and swimming holes make this a delightful place to get bush and explore.

Possible to 4wd closer, although the track is often lost over the wet season and not for the inexperienced.
