I am thinking of travelling from
Darwin to Roper River/Limmen Bight/
cape Crawford and then back to
Darwin. Has anyone travelled this route with a dog and if so can you give me some tips about
places to
camp etc.

There is a good
campsite on the Hodgson River just past Queensland Crossing Bridge. You turn right and after the bridge and drive about 5km to Rocky
Bar Crossing. You can also
camp along the Roper and at Lomarium Lagoon. Once in Limmen National Park you may not be allowed to
camp with a dog. Give Parks and Wildlife(Conservation Commission?) a call yo find out more..
Cheers

Hows things Willem?
That Termite Mound is dieing now as to many tourists have pocked a hole in it to see the termites.
As for camping out that way Nadia, just don't let your dog become Croc food.
Cheers Steve.

... but that's why we take a dog, I tell my wife that her Jack Russell needs a wash :o)) and throw her in (joking)
but seriously just beware, we take our Jack Russell everywhere
and would you believe she never barks in Caravan Parks so far
