Kakadu is the continent’s largest national park and hosts a range of unique ecosystems, including mangroves, floodplains, and monsoon forests.

Preserved within the park are cave paintings and rock carvings from the region’s Aboriginal population. They’ve inhabited the region consistently for over 50,000 years and continue the hunting-and-gathering tradition that began in the Pleistocene Era.
