Kakadu Wilderness Escape and Fogg Dam from Darwin
Your first stop on this 1 Day Kakadu Tour is a visit to the Fogg Dam Conservation Reserve. The traditional lands of the Limilngan-Wulna people (who are active in the reserve's management), is one of the most spectacular places to explore the diverse wildlife park of the Top End, and home to numerous species of birds, turtles, water pythons, and the Saltwater Crocodile. You will stop in at the Corroboree Park Tavern, where you can support locals and purchase your picnic lunch and snacks for the day ahead.
You'll visit the famous Cahills Crossing in search of crocodiles at this eye-opening stretch of water, the only road access point between Arnhem Land and Kakadu National Park. Visit the home of some of the oldest and best-preserved rock art galleries in the world, Ubirr Rock, and marvel at the amazing rock formations of the East Alligator region of Kakadu as it meets the West Arnhem plateau. Depending on seasonality and accessibility to Ubirr, you may instead visit Kakadu's other main rock art attraction at Nourlangie Rock, traditionally also known as Burrungkuy, where you can marvel at the art along the shaded rock shelters, appreciate the colorful birdlife, and hope to catch a glimpse of a number of species found nowhere else on the planet.
Duration: 8 to 10 hours
Visit the Cahills Crossing, see the spectacular Nadab floodplains, and lookout at Fogg Dam Conservation Centre.
