Jim Jim Falls

The Jim Jim Falls is a waterfall located in the Kakadu National Park in the Northern Territory, Australia.

The waterfall is located near the Twin Falls and close to the eastern boundary of the National Park and is located about 80 km south of Jabiru. He can be contacted on a side road, 60 km from the Kakadu Highway from. The path may be used only with four-wheel vehicles. From the parking area a trail leads through the Jim Jim Creek to the Falls basin.

In the waterfall plunges the Jim Jim Creek, a tributary of the South Alligator River, about 200 meters in depth. It is believed that the area was a shallow sea 140 million years ago and this collection has developed from the cliffs. This elevation is today a total of 330 meters and extends over 500 km along the eastern boundary of the park into Arnhem Land. In the dry season, the waterfall has usually no water. In this time, the case pool is thereby not connected with the Creek. The park rangers monitor the basin initial dry season included crocodiles and remove them if necessary, so that risk can be bathed. However, this does not apply to the creek, in this life, even during the dry season crocodiles.
