30 Min Kakadu Heli Flight

This 30 min Kakadu Heli Flight will take in the wonders of the World Heritage-listed Kakadu National Park, including Mikinj Valley, East Alligator River and Magela Wetlands. First views of the Rock Archway will bring to life the ancient beauty of this land. Journey back in time as you follow the East Alligator River’s gorge into the Mikinj Valley of Arnhem Land.  Learn about Australia’s oldest living culture as you hear stories of Indigenous traditions, history and dreamtime.

The East Alligator River stretches approximately 160 km (99 mi) in length. Originating in the northern part of the Arnhem Land Plateau, it flows northwestward, collecting tributary streams as it courses through canyons toward the Van Diemen Gulf, where it meets at Point Farewell. The river boasts a catchment area totaling 15,876 km2 (6,130 sq mi) and is fed by numerous tributaries such as Magela Creek, Tin Camp Creek, and Cooper Creek.  Enclosed by the South Alligator River catchment to the west, and flanked by the Goomadeer and Liverpool River catchments to the east, and the Daly River catchment to the south, the East Alligator River averages an annual discharge of 6,870 gigalitres (8.986×109 cu yd) per year.
