Nourlangie Rock Art site is about 46 kilometres from Gagudju Cooinda Lodge along the Kakadu Highway. The walk from the car park will take you past an Aboriginal shelter and several art sites. The Aboriginal people have used shelters in this area for at least 20,000 years and you can take a guided tour with one of the rangers and find out about the stories which are told through this artwork.
This Rock Art site is open all year round (check times at Bowali Visitor Centre) and during hot weather it is lovely and cool walking between the large rocks - you can easily understand why the Aboriginal people took shelter here. This is a 1.5 kilometre circuit walk which is well sign-posted - relatively easy. You are asked to stay behind the barriers (do not touch paintings) and stick to the boardwalks - we all need to help protect this important part of Aboriginal history
A track leading from the Nourlangie Rock Art site will take you up a slight climb to Gun-warddehwardde lookout and this gives a great view of Kakadu's escarpment and the surrounding countryside. The car park at Nourlangie Rock Art Walk is easily accessible and was quite busy when we were visiting the area.
