Jim Jim Falls

Jim Jim Falls Carpark, Jim Jim Road, Kakadu National Park

One of the Northern Territorys most dramatic waterfalls, Jim Jim Falls drops 200 metres from the Arnhem Land escarpment into a deep plunge pool surrounded by towering sandstone cliffs. The remote location and seasonal access make reaching the falls a true outback adventure, with a rocky scramble over boulders to reach the base.

Know before you go

4WD access only, road opens seasonally (typically June-November). The 900m scramble over boulders to the plunge pool is challenging. Crocodile warning signs must be heeded.
