Litchfield National Park Information
Litchfield National Park is an easy hour-and-a-half journey from Darwin, and is one of the Top End’s hidden treasures. This unspoiled wilderness is boasts monsoon rainforests, cascading waterfalls, diverse flora and fauna and impressive natural formations. Travellers can cool off with a swim in the plunge pool below Florence Falls, wade through a series of rocky pools at Buley Rockhole, view magnetic termite mounds, visit Wangi Falls and Tolmer Falls, or explore the sandstone towers of the Lost City.
Litchfield National Park’s closest service point is Batchelor, offering a range of accommodation and facilities. Have a snack at the Butterfly and Bird Farm, drop into the Coomalie Cultural Centre to browse its presentation of indigenous arts and crafts, or admire the miniature replica of Karlstein Castle.
Litchfield National Park was originally the home of the Wagait people. The Finniss exploration was the first European connection within the area and a member of that expedition, Frederick Henry Litchfield, has been remembered in the National Park’s name. For almost 75 years until 1955, the area was subject to tin and copper mining and then fell under pastoral leases until the Park became a reality.
