Touted as the largest screen production based in the Northern Territory since Crocodile Dundee took the region to international fame in 1986, Territory has captivated audiences with its neo-western style and has quickly amassed 12.7 million views, becoming the world’s second-most-watched show within just two weeks of release.

Light-heartedly described as “Dallas with dingoes,” the series draws on Kakadu’s raw landscapes to enhance its tension-filled narrative, featuring breathtaking locations like Cannon Hill, a sacred sandstone rock formation adorned with millennia-old Aboriginal rock art. Permissions were carefully granted by Kakadu’s Traditional Owners, ensuring that cultural heritage and the environment were respectfully highlighted throughout the production.

With dramatic waterfalls at their fullest and landscapes lush from the wet season, this time of year captures the park’s raw and untamed beauty. From scenic flights over filming sites to exploring its scenic wonders on foot, visitors can fully immerse themselves in the Kakadu landscape that brought Territory to life.

For those looking to follow in Territory’s footsteps, summer is the ideal time to explore Kakadu’s wild charm. To celebrate the show’s success and Kakadu’s star turn, several accommodation and special offers are available for visitors planning their trip.
