💧 Motor Car Falls is a hidden gem tucked deep within the southern hills of Kakadu National Park. It's a 7.5 km return hike takes you through lush monsoon forests, across rocky ridge-lines, and into one of Kakadu’s most rewarding swimming holes. It is a must-do for those seeking solitude, dramatic scenery, and a real outback adventure.

Bird lovers - keep an eye out for a bower bird nest around 1.5km into the trail!

Note, due to extreme rainfalls Motor Car Falls is not currently open so be sure to check the Kakadu Access Report, which is updated daily, if you're planning to visit soon - kakadu.gov.au/access/
