Arnhem Land (Jabiru Gate)
The western entrance to Arnhem Land — one of the world's last truly intact wilderness regions, covering 100,000 square kilometres of Aboriginal-owned territory east of Kakadu. Access requires a permit from the Northern Land Council. The landscape, culture, and wildlife are extraordinary and almost entirely unseen by mainstream tourism. Arnhem Land contains one of the world's oldest living cultures, the most pristine tropical wilderness in Australia, and rock art galleries that predate European civilisation by tens of thousands of years.
