Jim Jim Falls
Highlights
Get ready to see one of Australia's most incredible waterfalls at Jim Jim Falls in Kakadu National Park! These huge falls drop an amazing 200 metres into a crystal-clear plunge pool below. During the wet season, the water crashes down in a spectacular way, but even when it's a trickle, it's still an awesome place to visit.
If you're up for a fun challenge, you can hike the 900-metre trail to the bottom of the falls and even take a refreshing swim in the cool waters. The red cliffs and white sandy beaches make this spot even more special, so don't forget your camera!
Adult Supervision RecommendedRemember to stay safe and be with an adult when walking around the rocks and water!
