Kakadu is an exceptional 1 307 300 ha World Heritage park about 240 km east of Darwin. It includes Jabiru, Nourlangie Rock, Ubrirr, Jim Jim Falls, Twin Falls, Yellow Waters, South Alligator River & Waterfall Creek Nature Park. Kakadu features a great deal of flat savanna woodland rather than tropical rainforest, rivers, billabongs and mangroves. With over 60 mammal species, many reptiles and one-third of Australia’s birdlife, it is also rich in natural and Aboriginal history and art (including rock carvings and cave paintings). 6 000 sq km was originally set aside to establish the park in 1979 and today has grown to 19 804  sq km. Kakadu is divided into 5 natural sub-regions: plateau, lowlands, floodplain, tidal flats & southern hills. Due to flooding and impassable roads during the wet season, the end of the dry season is probably the ideal time to visit.
