Description

The Greenant Creek Walk is a moderate return walk in Litchfield National Park that leads to the Tjaetaba Falls plunge pool.

It starts at the Greenant Creek bridge and covers a distance of 2.7km. The walk is shaded and follows the creek upstream before climbing steeply to Tjaetaba Falls Lookout. It takes approximately 1.5 hours to complete and includes some steep inclines.

During the walk, you can observe the abundant flora and fauna that thrive in the creeks and springs of the region. Look out for tall Carpentaria palms, fig trees, and weeping paperbark trees. If you visit early in the morning or at dusk, you might even see the mob of Common Wallaroos that come for a drink of water. The weather is milder, and the falls have less water, making it easier to swim. To reach the Greenant Creek Walk / Tjaetaba Falls, you need to drive to Litchfield National Park, which is located 100km south-west of Darwin. The walk is only accessible by car, and you can park by the side of the road before starting the walking trail.

In conclusion, the Greenant Creek Walk is a great option for a day trip in Litchfield National Park. Remember to respect the Aboriginal sacred site and only swim above the falls. The custodians of the area request that visitors
