Affollato — Dry season

• Stagione

  Dry season

  1 mag – 31 ottAffollato

  From May the floodplains drop, the unsealed roads dry out and the park opens up properly. Bininj count six seasons here, not two, and this covers three of them.

• Regola

  Park pass, dry-season price

  15 mag – 31 ott

  Everyone needs a pass and it costs more in the dry than in the wet (an adult pass is $40 in the dry, $25 in the wet). Buy it online before you drive in; the ranger stations are a long way apart and there is no boom gate to sell you one. Fonte ↗

  The build-up

  1 ott – 15 dic · di solitoCaldo estremo

  Locals call October to December the build-up: still, heavy air and thunderheads that stack up for weeks before they deliver. Tours wind down, tempers fray, and the lightning is the show.

• Chiusura

  Southern roads and falls close

  1 nov – 31 mag · di solito

  The four-wheel-drive tracks to the big falls and most of the unsealed south shut with the first rains and reopen only once the crossings drop, which is often well into the dry. Fonte ↗

• Rischio

  Cyclone season

  1 nov – 30 apr

  Systems crossing the Top End coast bring days of torrential rain and wind rather than a direct blow. The highways in from Darwin can be cut for days, and Jabiru is where you wait it out. Fonte ↗
