Itinerary:
Dry
Season Program
(From May/June to November - depending on seasonal conditions
and park access)
Day 1 - Darwin to Mary
River & Kakadu National Park
First we're off to Mary River
Wetlands, with the highest concentration of saltwater crocodiles
in the southern hemisphere. Get close (but not too close!)
to 'salties' and other wild creatures on a cruise of the
wetlands. This afternoon we go to history-rich Ubirr,
where vivid Aboriginal rock art dates back over 20,000 years.
Then we head to our overnight bush camp in Kakadu. (LD)
Day 2 - Kakadu National
Park
It's an early one this morning
as we travel to Twin Falls. The spectacular gorge is
experienced onboard a National Park operated boat and along
the boardwalk. Unwind and relax for a bit on the sandy banks
before we head deep into the escarpment country to the awesome
Jim Jim Falls. It's a challenging climb to the top
of the falls (seasonal) but it's worth it for the sensational
views over Kakadu. You'll be asleep in no time once we reach
our overnight bush camp in Kakadu! (BLD)
Day 3 - Kakadu to Darwin
After waking up in our swags,
we head down to the Warradjan Cultural Centre to check
out the detailed information about Aboriginal Culture in Kakadu.
Then we take a hike at Maguk (Barramundi Falls), followed
by a cooling dip in the plunge pools. We then take the 4WD
Old Darwin Road (seasonal), passing the White Lily flood plains
along the way as we return back to Darwin after an exciting
three days in Kakadu. (BL)
