Enter Old North Australia Railway, via Peacock Rd, Darwin River. NOT BATCHELOR Google maps taking people the wrong way ! We are 14km along Old North Australia Railway. Off grid property on 310 acres of beautiful secluded bush. Just over an hour's drive from Darwin CBD and close to Litchfield National Park via 4WD track Come explore, relax and pitch your tent. Plenty of shady places to camp along the wet season creek. Must have own amenities and leave no trace Gather your friends or family and head out of town to get away from it all for a night or two...Sleep under the stars, set up camp or bring your camper to unwind and unplug as you reconnect with nature. Enjoy a bushwalk, a campfire or a swim in the wet season creek or just put your feet up with a book and a cold drink in Darwin's rugged bushland. Large camp sites and caravans welcome. Dog friendly. There are no amenities here, so suits self-sufficient campers who leave no trace. Please enter property via Peacock Rd, Darwin River, not Batchelor

Awesome!
Awesome camp site. We would definitely stay again. A real bush experience. Very peaceful. The chorus of kookaburras added to the atmosphere. Absolutely loved it.

Peace and quiet
Very peaceful. We had the place to ourselves. Ian is a friendly and hospitable host. Make sure to drive in as per the instructions and not from the Batchelor end!

Site 3 - Rum Jungle Ridge
Attended camp site 5 with the family and dog. Had a nice quiet time with walks up and down the dried creek bed. This is a nice place to sit back and re-charge your batteries.
