Good news! Maguk is reopening to visitors at 11am tomorrow, Friday 28 August 💙

A short, scenic walk through lush monsoon forest leads you to one of Kakadu's most-loved swimming spots - a beautiful seasonal waterfall and plunge pool that's a real family favourite.

A few things to pack: sunscreen, a hat, insect repellent, sturdy shoes, and plenty of food and water. You'll need an AWD or 4WD to get there, and the nearest services (food, water, fuel, Wi-Fi) are back at Cooinda Lodge, about 45 minutes away, so come prepared.
