Starting from the car park off Litchfield Park Road, Litchfield National Park, take a leisurely stroll along the smooth, flat path and marvel at the unique Magnetic and Cathedral Termite mounds. Some as old as 100 years old, the Magnetic Termite mounds stand up to two metres high and have thin edges pointing north-south and broad backs facing east-west. The taller four-metre-high Cathedral Termite mounds are also a sight to behold. Learn more about these remarkable creatures and their habitat at the information shelter. Enjoy the views and take in the beauty of the rural landscape. There is a toilet located along the path. A park pass is required for visitors to the NT to access this park. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
