Yellow Waters Wetlands
Turning
off the Stuart Highway, we travel along the Arnhem Highway
passing the major river systems and wetland regions into
Kakadu National Park. After crossing the South Alligator
River we begin to explore the World Heritage Area of Ubirr
Rock where we climb up through the ancient Aboriginal
rock art galleries to the lookout for the famous view over
surrounding wetlands. We then visit the Bowali Visitor
Centre with informative displays, and continue to Cooinda
to join Kakadu's fabled Yellow Waters Wetland Cruise
to experience the beauty of the Kakadu wetlands.

Nourlangie
Rock
The morning is spent in the Nourlangie Rock region
and Anbangbang Billabong which includes spectacular
Arnhemland Escarpment views, ancient Aboriginal occupation
sites and pristine freshwater environs. After lunch venture
off the beaten track to Barramundi Gorge, where a 2km
return walk through paperbark forest leads to a small waterfall
and clear plunge pool with an opportunity for a swim. This
walk is graded moderate with difficult areas requiring some
agility in rougher parts of the track. Late afternoon we make
our way to Jabiru where you will be staying overnight.

or Kakadu Lodge(CB, L) |

Arnhem
Land
Today we depart from Jabiru and visit remote, mysterious and
restricted areas of Kakadu and Arnhemland. Arnhemland is
Aboriginal land - a unique area where Aboriginal people
live a lifestyle more closely linked to their true culture
and heritage. This 4WD tour will visit Mikinj Valley,
a superbly scenic area of sandstone outcrops and escarpments,
forest, floodplains and billabongs. This is an area where
Aboriginals have lived for thousands of years and by arrangement
with an co-operation of the Manilakarr people, this
unique tour will allow you to see places inaccessible to most.
Hear of traditional land ownership, learn of bush skills,
hunting, food gathering and preparation (bush tucker), view
Aboriginal art in its natural state - no fences or barriers,
or other groups … just art as it was created many years ago.
