Swimming in the cool, clear waters of Jim Jim Falls

Start with a bushwalk (2km return) along Jim Jim Creek. The shady monsoonal rainforest reveals some of its secrets. Be rewarded for hiking over large rocks and boulders into the gorge with a refreshing swim in the cool, clear waters under the towering cliffs of Jim Jim Falls.

Sit back with a hot cuppa or explore the area around the beach pool and the plunge pool – it’s a photographer’s heaven!

The amount of water flowing over Jim Jim Falls depends on seasonal conditions. Rest assured, a sheer drop of 220m is always an awesome sight, with our without water tumbling over the edge of the cliff!

Boating towards Twin Falls

Our journey continues with an adventurous drive towards Twin Falls. A short boat trip into Twin Falls Gorge and a stroll over rocks and sand (1km return) along the edge of Twin Falls Creek lead us to the base of the falls.

Try catching a glimpse of the timid Freshwater Crocodile basking in the sun or spot a Pig-nosed Turtle in the clear water of the creek.

Take a break and enjoy a freshly prepared picnic lunch on the white sandy beach beside the magnificent Twin Falls.

Swimming is currently not permitted in the gorge of Twin Falls. We recommend that you read Kakadu National Park’s official information on visitor safety and responsibilities.
