Nestled in the heart of Australia's top end, this remarkable land is proudly Traditionally Owned. Kakadu National Park, the largest in Australia, bears witness to the enduring connection of the Bininj/Mungguy (Indigenous) community, who have called this breathtaking landscape home for generations. With a unique double world heritage listing, Kakadu showcases Australia's most dramatic landscapes, awe-inspiring waterfalls, sacred rock art sites, and unparalleled wildlife.
The Bininj/Mungguy communities have cultivated a profound connection with this land, and the heartbeat of their ancestry echoes. The Aboriginal culture in Kakadu encapsulates a great understanding of the natural world, expressed through art, Dreamtime stories, and a harmonious coexistence with the environment. In exploring Kakadu, you'll embark on a journey that transcends time, connecting to the roots of Australia's Indigenous Country.
Kakadu Biodiversity
Kakadu is one of Australia's richest wildlife regions, with over 280 bird species, 132 reptiles, and thousands of plant and insect species. Yellow Water Billabong teems with life—from estuarine crocodiles to white-bellied sea eagles—while agile wallabies and northern quolls roam the savannahs. The escarpments are home to rare species like the black wallaroo and chestnut-quilled rock pigeon, found only in Kakadu. Each habitat, from floodplain to stone country, plays a vital role in this unique and vibrant ecosystem.

After a six-year legal stoush this Kakadu landmark is finally open to the public again. But in the absence of humans, something altogether wilder and more dangerous has moved in…
Sentinall Times: “You’re the boy that got the pig-nosed turtle!” guides exclaimed as they shook 17-year-old Wyatt’s hand. The bush telegraph travelling Kakadu.
Jim Jim Falls is one of Kakadu National Park’s most spectacular natural wonders!
Towering cliffs frame this dramatic waterfall, which plunges into a stunning pool at the base of the escarpment. Accessible via a 4WD track and walking trail, Jim Jim Falls is best visited in the dry season when the water cascades in all its glory. Surrounded by ancient sandstone cliffs and lush forest, it’s a must-see destination for adventure seekers and nature lovers exploring the Top End. 💦🥾
