Litchfield National Park Top End Day Trip from Darwin

Journey to the Litchfield National Park from Darwin, home to some of Australia’s most spectacular waterfalls. Enjoy the breathtaking views, iconic magnetic termite mounds and crystal-clear pools. You will have the opportunity to tour some of Australia’s most diverse landscapes, sandstone pillars, panoramic floodplain views, picturesque waterfalls and bustling plant and animal life. You’ll also have the chance to step on the famous Jumping Crocodile Cruise (optional extra) on the Adelaide River, alternatively you’ll visit the Fogg Dam Conservation Centre. The traditional lands of the Limilngan-Wulna people (who are active in the reserve’s management) are spectacular and home to numerous species of birds, turtles, water pythons and the iconic Saltwater Crocodile.

Visit some incredible monolithic Magnetic Termite Mounds and enjoy plenty of time to cool off in one of Litchfield’s beautiful natural plunge pools like Buley Rockholes or Wangi Falls. Visit a thundering waterfall like Florence Falls or Tolmer Falls and marvel at the sheer beauty carved out amongst the rocky escarpments. Fully relaxed and rejuvenated after a guided day tour in the stunning tropical national park, you’ll travel back to Darwin.
