Summary
Weather for Pine Creek

Situated 90 kilometres north of Katherine with a population of 600, the colourful mining town of Pine Creek is at the junction of the Stuart and Kakadu Highways.

Gold was first discovered in 1871 by workers building the Overland Telegraph Line. The town still possesses the original buildings constructed back in the heady gold days and it is great to soak up some of that old pioneering spirit still evident at Pine Creek. Gold mining still continues to this day with one of the biggest open cut gold mines in the Territory.

Just north of Pine Creek you can turn onto the sealed Kakadu Highway and it is just 60km to the southern boundary of Kakadu National Park. This gateway is a bonus when travelling north from Katherine, as it allows the traveller to include Kakadu en route to Darwin.

Getting There - Road: The Stuart Highway is a sealed all weather road. Air: The closest airport is in Katherine - 90km away. Coach: Daily services to Pine Creek with Greyhound Pioneer and McCafferty's are available.
