THE TRIP: |
Kakadu National Park
is a World Heritage
Area covering some
20,000 square kms.
Waterfalls tumble
from the red cliffs
of the Arnhem Land
escarpment into
shady pools;
tranquil wetlands
teem with animal and
birdlife while
40,000 years of
Aboriginal cultural
heritage is on
display in the
numerous hidden rock
art galleries. The
opportunities for
photography are as
varied as they are
spectacular. While
visits to Kakadu's
main attractions are
on our itinerary
including a cruise
on Yellow Waters (a
favourite haunt of
saltwater
crocodiles) it is
when we get off the

wander through
remote gorges to
sparkling waterfalls
for a quick dip
before heading to
our overnight camp.
