Kakadu and the Top End in the dry season
Kakadu in the dry is open roads, waterfalls you can reach, and heat that still requires a siesta. In the wet it is a different park. Believe the difference.

The climb is closed. The rock is not a playground. A visit still works if you walk at the right hour and listen longer than you photograph.
