Kakadu lies 150 miles east of Darwin, in a region Australian's fondly call, The Top End.
While Canberra, might be the seat of the nations power, Kakadu is one of those few places where you'll discover the country's soul.
World Heritage Listed Kakadu is a geological, biological, and cultural wonderland, …it's more than just a national park, it's a national treasure.
The Bininj and Mungguy people have been caring for this country for over 50,000 years, and today, are happy to share parts of their Country, knowledge and Dreaming, with you.
A three hour drive from Darwin, Kakadu is open year round, but most visitors come during the Dry Season, from May to October, when most of the park's roads are open.
Just because this is the Outback, don't think you have to rough it.
There's comfortable hotels and campsites, and visitors centers where you can stock up on supplies, fuel and information.
You'll need to set aside a few days to fully explore Kakadu, and once there, the best way to experience the park is by off-road vehicle and on foot.
The park has around 25 marked trails, from short walks to multi-day hikes.
The walk to Jim Jim Falls is only half a mile, but it's a walk that you'll never forget.
