Description

This free point of interest offers nice scenery and wildlife viewing. Dogs are not permitted. No camping or overnight parking allowed. From Kakadu Facebook Page We are disappointed with the behaviour of some visitors at Cahills Crossing who have ignored safety signage and walked dangerously close to the water, risking the chance of being attacked by a crocodile. We have closed the Cahills Crossing viewing platform and adjacent walking tracks until September while major construction work is underway on the new viewing platform. We remind visitors to be Crocwise in Kakadu National Park and to avoid gathering on the road at Cahills Crossing for safety reasons during this time. It's not worth risking your life when there are plenty of other places to safely view crocodiles in the park. If you want to know why its closed read the article by the ABC Darwin.
