Informazioni

Fatti rapidi: Over 20,000 square kilometers make this one of the largest national parks in Australia, housing around 280 bird species and 117 mammal species. The area blends spectacular landscapes like wetlands, rivers, and sandstone escarpments with ancient Aboriginal rock art sites dating back over 20,000 years.

Punti salienti: Experience the vibrant floodplains lighting up during the wet season, transforming the park into a lush oasis attracting thousands of magpie geese. Explore Ubirr, where ancient rock art galleries showcase dynamic depictions of now-extinct megafauna alongside ancestral stories.

Wear sturdy walking shoes and a wide-brimmed hat to tackle rocky terrain and sun exposure.
Head to Ubirr at sunset for breathtaking views over the Nadab floodplain and vivid rock art.
Avoid visiting during heavy rains as some roads and trails become impassable.
Carry plenty of water and insect repellent, especially in the warmer months.
