Nature Travel Australia
The Northern Territory is Australia's nature travel paradise.
Each of the 52 Northern Territory national parks and nature conservation reserves protect a variety of unique natural environments and native animals.
View rare species of flora, native wildlife and go birdwatching around the many established walking trails, swimming holes and camping areas.
Saltwater crocs, the most famous of the Territory’s creatures, can be seen in most rivers and billabongs in the Top End or at the wildlife parks around Darwin.
While the deserts of Central Australia may at first seem stark, closer inspection reveals a complex ecosystem, supporting some of the most unique flora and fauna on the planet.
The varied habitats, rare plants and animals, and spectacular landscapes of the Northern Territory are unmatched for an Australian nature holiday.
