Litchfield National Park

A 1,500-square-kilometre sandstone plateau a hundred kilometres south of Darwin, dropping to a chain of waterfalls and clear plunge pools along its edge. Wangi, Florence, Tolmer and Tjaynera Falls; Buley Rockhole's series of stepped pools; and the magnetic termite mounds aligned north-to-south along the edge of the floodplain. Sealed-road access through the entire park via Litchfield Park Road. Most plunge pools close to swimming through the Wet Season for crocodile management. Generally accessible year-round.

A parks pass may be required for entry. Check park alerts for closures and fire warnings. Carry sufficient water and food. Let someone know your plans if heading into remote areas. This is an easy visit suitable for most fitness levels.
