Kakadu is loved by photographers for the diversity of landscapes, abundance of wildlife, the 20,000 year old rock art and of course, its people.  Whether you’re a professional photographer or a leisurely holiday snapper, Kakadu gives you plenty of breathtaking opportunities to capture stunning moments during your visit to the spectacular Kakadu National Park.

Out here in Kakadu, the mob has lived and breathed sustainability since the beginning of time. With a philosophy that entwines humans with its environment - “I am you, you are me”, one cannot live without each other.

Kakadu is Australia’s largest national park—and this is saying something. The park spans some 20,000 square kilometres which, to put it into context, is about the size of the nation of Slovenia. Something that makes the park special is that over half of it is made up of Aboriginal land.

Are you one of the 200,000 people planning to venture through Kakadu National Park this year?

It's not a surprise you're planning an adventure to Australia's largest national park. The 20,000km² of land is home to breath-taking natural wonders and unique rock formations.

Did you know that Lithgow, New South Wales is one of the coldest cities in Australia, reaching an average of -3.2ºC during the winter?

Did you know that Australia is one of the top ten safest countries for women and solo travellers? 

Hot summer nights.  Colossal waterfalls. Rich wildlife. Magical sunsets. Epic lighting shows.  This is the tropical summer season in Kakadu.

Caring for Country is a way of life for Aboriginal people. Aboriginal people have inhabited  this land for generations, passing the knowledge of their forefathers to the next generation.  This comes naturally as it's been instilled in them from the beginning of time and continues to be passed down through each generation.

From towering escarpments, refreshing waterholes, vast floodplains, cruising crocodiles, busy birdlife, ancient rock art and stunning woodlands, adventure is but just a step away.

Get ready to be tempted with the adventure that awaits for you at Kakadu!
