ITINERARY

DAY ONE

We leave Darwin at 7:00am and travel towards Kakadu National Park, stopping along the way for some true bush hospitality at the Bark Hut Inn. Entering the park we discover the spectacular scenery and aboriginal rock art of Nourlangie Rock. After a picnic lunch, we cruise Yellow Waters, home to a wide variety of bird life and the lurking saltwater crocodile. We set up camp for the evening, having dinner around the camp fire under the stars.(L,D)

DAY TWO

After an early breakfast we depart on our big day out to Twin Falls and Jim Jim Falls. These falls are in a remote area of the park only accessible by four wheel drive, some 70 kilometres off the sealed road. It's an area of incredible natural beauty. Twin Falls is only accessible by water and we take a short boat cruise to the falls. After a picnic lunch, we take the hike (approximately 1km) through the rainforest to Jim Jim Falls. We return to the camp for dinner and overnight (B,L,D)

DAY THREE

We leave camp after breakfast and travel to the clear rock pools of Barramundi Gorge. After lunch, explore the rock art and spectacular scenery of Ubirr Rock. This afternoon we take short flight to Mt Borradaile in Arnhemland. (B,L,D)
