Walks and Hikes in the Northern Territory

Walks in the Northern Territory

Gorges, Jungles and Woodlands

Home to some iconic locations including Litchfield, Kakadu, Nitmiluk, Uluru and Darwin, the Northern Territory is a great place to explore on foot. With plenty of natural beauty to discover throughout the stunning national parks, explore gorges, waterfalls, open plains, jungles and expansive river systems throughout this wide open land.

Below are a collection of walking and hiking trail that I've visited on my two trips to the Northern Territory, with a few more trips planned to cover Kakadu, the famous Larapinta Trail and many more places to come.
