Five nights in Kakadu National Park, mapped from our own run through the park. Merl in the north east down to Gunlom in the south, taking in the rock art, the floodplains and the waterfalls that make the place worth the drive.

Kakadu is not a hard park to drive. It is a hard park to plan. Parks Australia splits it into regions without showing you where those regions actually are, and the sites within them are not listed in any order that helps you build a route. This is the exact run we did, so you can see at a glance which campground puts you closest to what.

WHAT'S INCLUDED:

- Ubirr (rock art galleries and the sunset lookout)

- Cahill's Crossing

- Burrungkuy (Nourlangie) art site loop

- Nanguluwurr Gallery walk (4km return)

- Anbangbang Billabong

- Yellow Water and the Cooinda cruise departure point

- Gungurul Lookout

- Gunlom Falls

- Motor Car Falls (Yurmikmik) walk

- Campground waypoints: Merl, Djarradjin (Muirella Park), Mardukal, Gungurul and Gunlom

WHY IT'S WORTH IT

We pieced together this trip over many hours planning across a number of different apps, websites and paper maps. Skip all the hassle and get track, campsite, hike and lookout information sent directly to your inbox so you can spend more time exploring and less time planning.

Digital download - nothing to ship. Your files land in your inbox as soon as payment clears (usually straight away). Load them into Hema, Gaia, Garmin, OsmAnd or Google Earth and go.

Every waypoint in this pack is a place we've actually stood - driven, camped and filmed. If we haven't done it, we don't sell it.

Heading further into the Territory? Our Gregory National Park and East MacDonnell Ranges reports cover the country to the west and south.

A note before you go: Kakadu is seasonal country and sites close at short notice for water levels, roadworks and crocodile management. Jim Jim and Twin Falls have been shut for entire seasons. Gunlom is high clearance 4WD only and the road corrugates badly. Cahill's Crossing works best on the incoming tide, so check the chart the night before. Always check the Kakadu Access Report before you head in, be Crocwise, and don't swim anywhere that isn't signed as open. These files are a planning aid, not a substitute for your own judgement on the day.

You are responsible for your own safety and that of your passengers, your vehicle, and every decision you make on the track. Carry plenty of water, fuel, recovery gear and a reliable means of communication. Mobile coverage exists at Jabiru, Cooinda and a handful of the main sites, but there is none across most of the park.

By using these files you accept that you do so entirely at your own risk. Adventure Lifestyle takes no responsibility and accepts no liability for any injury, death, loss, damage, vehicle wear, fines or misadventure suffered as a result of following our tracks or visiting any location in these packs.

Still deciding? Our free Kakadu location guide covers the season, access, permits, fuel and camps - the planning side. It has no tracks or waypoints, so it won't get you through the country. That's what this pack is for. Get the free guide
