Gregory's Tree

Gregory's Tree is a large heritage-listed boab tree (Adansonia gregorii) on the banks of the Victoria River, about 10 kilometres west of Timber Creek in the Victoria Daly Region, Northern Territory. It is notable for inscriptions carved by explorer Augustus Charles Gregory during his 1855-1856 North Australian Expedition, marking his camp on 2 July 1856. The site lies within Judbarra / Gregory National Park and is a well-known roadside historic landmark on the Victoria Highway.

Visitors can expect a large boab tree set in savanna woodland on the Victoria River floodplain, accessed via a short walk from a signed highway car park. The trunk bears the historic carved inscription '2 July 1856' left by Augustus Gregory's expedition, protected by a fence. Interpretive signs explain the expedition and the tree's heritage listing. The surroundings are open, natural bushland with views to the river and escarpment, with no built visitor centre.
