LIMMEN NATIONAL PARK, NT TRAVEL
Limmen National Park is located in an isolated part of the Northern Territory Gulf Region and features spectacular rock formations, several river systems and wetlands. It is a land rich in culture and history, teeming with wildlife and waiting for you to come and explore.
The Traditional Owners of Limmen National Park are the Yanuwa, Mara, Alawa, Kurdanji, Ngalakan, Garawa and Binbinga Aboriginal people. They are affiliated with these lands and have registered sites of significance within the park. They live throughout the region and continue to maintain their links to the land.
I departed Borroloola, a major regional town in the Gulf Region situated on the banks of the McArthur River, after enjoying a couple of days of R&R. Unfortunately, there wasn't time to visit King Ash Bay only 50km north of town. I'd heard plenty of good things about the place.
Taking the Carpentaria Highway, I headed west before turning right off the bitumen onto Ryans Bend Road, a shortcut to Limmen National Park if coming from this direction.
