Car Hire Katherine - Mini guide to Katherine

Katherine

Maybe you were watching ABC in 2006, when they were showing pictures of a town in the North Territory of Australia that had stood up very well under severe flooding conditions. Structurally there wasn.t any major damage to homes and businesses . so the little town of Katherine has survived one more storm.

Actually Katherine has been around since since the 1800.s, but people couldn.t quite agree on the layout of the town, so she was moved here and there until John Stewart came along in the mid 1800.s and John named the river Katherine, the town Katherine and next came the Katherine Telegraph station in 1872.

54 years later the Katherine Bridge for the railway was completed and shortly thereafter several shops were moved (almost like a chess game) and finally everyone agreed on a main street and the town of Katherine finally had her feet on solid ground.

If you.re itching to see Australia, schedule a flight to Darwin (only a couple hours away from Katherine) and get your car hire ahead of time and get ready for some leisure, relaxation and fun in a beautiful little town.

There are parks for picnics, gorgeous campgrounds with waterfalls close by and some darn right great fishing in the Katherine River . but please remember the crocs just love the Katherine River too!

Some famous country western stars might be in town or some of the pubs have rock n.roll or rnb music and the food.s to die for . junk foods available if that.s what you crave. The local Aboriginals love to hang out together in Katherine and they can share some great history with you, if you.re a history buff.

Don.t waste your time sleeping, this is truly .Gods. country . grab your suitcases, jump in your car hire and get away from the rest of the crazy world for awhile. See Ya in Katherine
