"A compact but diverse Top End reserve spanning about 1,500 km² of sandstone plateaus, monsoon forest, tropical swamps and dramatic waterfalls; it is highly accessible from Darwin (roughly a 1.5‑hour drive) and attracts large numbers of day-trippers, yet still offers remote, immersive experiences for those who stay overnight. The park is celebrated for its changing light and colours, vivid seasonal blooms and abundant wildlife, but visitors must also respect real hazards — freshwater and saltwater crocodiles, venomous snakes and the effects of bushfires — and the importance of low-impact tourism to protect fragile ecological balances." - Nick Measures
