Historic

Kakadu National Park is one of the Northern Territory’s best-known national parks. The park is renowned worldwide, having received reviews as the backdrop for the Crocodile Dundee movies, and having achieved World Heritage status on the basis of both its natural and its cultural significance (Kakadu gained its World Heritage Listing only in 1984).

Some numbers to figure things out: Kakadu National Park is just 150 kilometres from Darwin. Over 200 kilometres from north to south and 100 kilometres east to west, Kakadu encompasses almost 20 000 square kilometres. It is home to more than 1,600 species of plant, 60 mammals, 290 birds, 120 reptiles, 25 frogs and 55 fish (many are rare and occur only in Kakadu). The land itself is more than two billion years old, and the Aboriginal rock art adorning it is has been there for 20,000 years or more. There are as many as 5,000 Aboriginal sites identified in Kakadu.

According to the Aboriginal people who still call it home, Kakadu is affected by six distinct seasons (although most people could identify only two: the Dry Season and The Tropical Summer). The name ‘Kakadu’ comes from ‘Gagadju’ - the main Aboriginal language used in the northern part of the area at the start of the 20th century. Today three major languages are spoken within the Park - Gundjehimi, Kunwinjku and Jawoyn.
