Gunlom Pool, Kakadu National Park, Northern Territory

OZ Top Spot #1 Gunlom, Kakadu NP, NT

August 7, 2010 Red Nomad OZ Gunlom, Kakadu, National Parks, Northern Territory, Travel

“Awesome” isn’t a strong enough word to describe the grandeur of Gunlom (part of Waterfall Creek), deep within Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory (NT).
