About the Business
Welcome to Window on the Wetlands, a captivating establishment and one of the must-visit tourist attractions in Australia's Northern Territory. Located in the picturesque Litchfield Municipality, specifically in Middle Point, our institution offers an immersive experience that showcases the diverse landscapes and rich biodiversity of this remarkable region.
The Northern Territory is renowned for its stunning natural beauty, ranging from the arid Red Centre to the lush tropical Top End. With over 80 parks and reserves spread across the territory, there is no shortage of opportunities to explore and discover the wonders of this unique part of the world.
However, it's important to note that the Northern Territory experiences both planned and unplanned fires between May and October, which can impact air quality. If you have any health concerns, we recommend checking the air quality data on the Northern Territory Environment Protection Authority website for up-to-date information.
Starting from April 3, 2023, visitors to the Northern Territory will be required to have a park pass to access most national parks and reserves. Additionally, if you plan to camp or embark on multi-day walking trails within these parks and reserves, it is essential to book and pay online in advance.
Fortunately, most parks and reserves in the Northern Territory provide designated campgrounds for your convenience. However, it is crucial to have a booking before setting up camp. For more information on camping and available camping locations, we encourage you to explore our website.
Before visiting, there are a few important things you should know to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. It is essential to adequately prepare yourself, follow the rules and regulations within the parks, and obtain any necessary permits. The Avenza Maps app can also be a valuable tool, allowing you to locate yourself within the park and navigate your way effectively.
Lastly, the Northern Territory Government acknowledges and respects the First Nations people of this country, recognizing their enduring connections to their lands, waters, and communities. We pay our deepest respects to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures and their leaders, both past and present.
At Window on the Wetlands, we strive to provide an unforgettable experience that not only showcases the natural beauty of the Northern Territory but also fosters a deep appreciation for the indigenous cultures that have thrived in this land for thousands of years. We invite you to visit us and embark on a journey of discovery and connection with the remarkable landscapes and rich cultural heritage of Australia's Northern Territory.

"The scenery was nice mostly wetland wild animals like kangaroos birds water buffalos I enjoyed watching the bush and wildlife."
"Nice view over the wetlands. Some information about the region, free documentary about the changing seasons in the Kakadu region."
"At the entrance, I was greeted nicely by the landowner, a lady who asked, "Hello, how may I help you?" I replied, "Is this the visitor centre?" She confirmed that it was and began to mention the donation policy. As I was carrying a DSLR camera, she also mentioned that taking commercial photos was prohibited. This made me feel negative as I have traveled to over 40 countries, including all major cities in Australia and New Zealand, without ever being asked this nonsensical question. This incident happened after my tour of the origin crocodile jumping. You know what? I'm a tourist, taking pictures is what tourists do! I'm travelling from another continent, I'm not local, and I have already paid over 1250 AUD for accommodations in Kakadu and Litchfield, and another 3000 AUD for air tickets. This is just the beginning of my trip, and I'm going to spend much, much more. So I don't mind making a donation if it's worth it, considering that I'm already spending around 35 AUD for every meal. However, the fact that I was carrying a DSLR camera and was warned about taking pictures for commercial purposes made me consider this rude. I was sitting in front waiting for my friend, and I was the only one asked that question. Why? Was it because I'm Asian and therefore targeted? When I went to museums in Russia, they didn't even ask that rude question. They simply charged for camera usage, and I paid. Everyone with a camera had to pay, and that's the way it should be. Instead of picking people to ask, you better put up a signboard on the front door. This way, you won't insult people."
"This place is fantastic, so informative with spectacular views. Outraged to hear the NT govt. are going to close this place according to the news! Hope that doesn't happen as I recommend it as a place all Australians and visitors should visit... a must stop on your way to a croc cruise along the Adelaide River."
