One of the Northern Territorys most dramatic waterfalls, Jim Jim Falls drops 200 metres from the Arnhem Land escarpment into a deep plunge pool surrounded by towering sandstone cliffs. The remote location and seasonal access make reaching the falls a true outback adventure, with a rocky scramble over boulders to reach the base.
Know before you go
4WD access only, road opens seasonally (typically June-November). The 900m scramble over boulders to the plunge pool is challenging. Crocodile warning signs must be heeded.
