Cahills Crossing Viewing Platform

Cahills Crossing Viewing Platform is a highway rest stop in the lush Top End — ancient Kakadu wetlands, thundering Litchfield waterfalls, and some of the most biodiverse landscapes on the planet. On Territory roads, rest areas aren't just convenient — they're essential. Fatigue kills more people than speed on these long, straight highways. Pull over, stretch your legs, have a cuppa, and take in the vastness of the outback. Most have shade shelters, picnic tables, and toilets. Some allow 24-hour stays for overnight camping. A welcome break on the drive.
