Your New Home
The Big Rivers region (a 3 hour drive from Darwin) begins south of Kakadu National Park encompassing Pine Creek, then extends over 500km south to Kalkaringi and stretches across the width of the Territory between the Western Australia and Queensland borders.
The region is significant in scale, covering over 360,000 square kilometres and accounting for an area greater than that covered by Germany.
The region consists of a number of varied natural environments including vast rivers, tropical forests, rocky escarpments and savannah plains.
With eight national parks and reserves throughout the region, as well as five main river systems, this is a truly unique part of the world that many will never get to see.
If you're looking for authentic cultural and historical attractions, as well as an outdoor lifestyle that showcases the natural wonders of the Australian outback, look no further.
