Jarrangbarnmi / Koolpin Gorge

Jarrangbarnmi / Koolpin Gorge is a remote sandstone gorge in southern Kakadu National Park, Northern Territory, about 60 km southeast of Jabiru. Managed by Parks Australia jointly with Traditional Owners, it features steep escarpments, seasonal waterfalls, clear pools and sandy beaches. Access is by high-clearance 4WD and permit-only camping, making it one of Kakadu's most secluded gorges, valued for bushwalking, swimming and wilderness camping in a World Heritage-listed landscape.

Visitors can expect a secluded wilderness gorge enclosed by rugged sandstone cliffs and escarpments with a sandy creek bed, clear freshwater pools and seasonal waterfalls. The site is accessed via a rough 4WD track and offers a designated bush campground, walking tracks along the gorge and creek, and opportunities for swimming, photography and nature observation. There are no shops or piped water, and the area is managed for low-impact, self-sufficient camping in a natural bush setting.
