When you connect with East Arnhem Land’s vast untouched wilderness and ancient Aboriginal culture, you’ll uncover a part of Australia you probably didn’t know existed.
Cruise through the mangrove-lined rivers; cast a fishing line into azure coastal waters; walk with a guide along the pristine white-sandy beaches and kick back at sunset with views over the rich-red rocky cliffs as the hustle and bustle of city life disappears.
Get an overview of the region, its history and Yolngu stories at Roy Marika Lookout on the summit of Nhulun (Mount Saunders), a brief walk along the trail from town. Enjoy the panoramic vistas of Gaynaru Wetlands (Town Lagoon) Gove Harbour and coastline.
Follow the walking trail through the beautiful paperbark forests of the culturally significant Gayngaru Wetlands, once a popular hunting spot for Yolngu. Stand in awe of the tranquillity, abundant wildlife, including crocodiles and barramundi, and bountiful birdlife from blue-faced honeyeaters to splendid falcons soaring overhead from the bird hide and viewing platforms.
