Barramundi Gorge (Maguk) Waterfall — Attraction in Northern Territory

I went unprepared… it is a very long walk to the falls but it is really worth it. One way was probably 40 minutes but we had to cross through ankle deep water on a few occasions.

Walk is short and can get a little slippery to reach the main pool(the one you see in the photo below) but nothing too difficult. Highlights of Kakadu and...
