Ereluk - Our personal name sake nestled between Jodetluk and Nitmiluk - Private, secluded, “Primitive Camp Sites” nestled around a 400 acre property in a unique Australian bush setting. Firstly named aptly “The Escarpment” for the truly beautiful ridge that runs kilometers along the block boundary, providing a perfect back drop to individual camp sites. Purpose built van pads spaced far enough apart to offer privacy and peace have been positioned with the Caravan in mind. Whilst waiting for the wet & the long grass to let us onto the flats, we have set up an initial 10 sites that are all year round accessible. These are a bit closer together as will be described in the description. Also a bit cheaper so happy campers all round! Ereluk - The true experience! Over The Creek - some of the best camping sites along the base of the escarpment are just waiting to be found. Yearly we fix up after the wet giving 4WD access to these hidden gems. A little more expensive but worth the extra for the views alone. On The Creek - Our most sort after sites! We have 3 sites only that are situated on the best part of the creek this block has to offer. Deep holes that are great for a swim with water so clear we drink it. Truly amazing and worth the extra $ for a sweet location. It is mostly 4WD access and all vans must be self-contained as no amenities, water or power are available at these sites. Those looking for a bush experience with plenty of activities to do during the day will not be disappointed.

Ereluk - Over the creek 1
Gorgeous spot just below the escarpment, completely tucked away and private. 5 mins drive from Katherine's Gorge and all in all a great stay.

Peace and convenience
We spent a lovely peaceful night at the Escarpment, Lizard camp and only a five minute drive in the morning to our Nitmiluk Cruise. The site was level and offered a little shade, but more importantly for us plenty of clear sky to help with solar and Starlink connection.

We were greeted by Wayne and recommended a better spot(Camel) than the one we'd booked. Quiet place, real bush setting. Escarpment sites looked even better.
