HAWK DREAMING WILDERNESS LODGE

Nestled in Kakadu National Park, Cannon Hill served as the Sorry Place in the Netflix Territory series where Uncle Bryce and the Traditional Owners shared the significance of Country with Dezi. It was also the site of Daniel Lawson’s tragic demise and the battleground where Young Turks Marshall and Sharnie stood against Campbell Miller’s men.

Located in an exclusive and restricted area of Kakadu National Park, where less that 1000 people a year gain access, the Hawk Dreaming Wilderness Lodge features just 12 twin share ensuited tented safari cabins. A daily Sunset Safari explores stunning rock art and sandstone outcrops before a spectacular sunset on the escarpment over the wetlands. Return to camp for a delicious evening meal presented by our resident camp host and enjoy an authentic Aussie experience as you relax around a campfire under the stars. Retire to the comfort of your tented safari cabin at the end of a memorable day.
