Camping near Humpty Doo guide
Overview
Australia might be the world leader in quirky place names, and the Northern Territory town of Humpty Doo is up there with the best. Adding a fun name to your road trip itinerary isn’t the only reason to swing by—this lively country town is also a strategic stop on the road from Darwin to Kakadu National Park. Within a 30-minute drive, you can explore the museums and stroll the beachside markets of Darwin, while an hour’s drive takes you to the waterfalls, croc-filled rivers, and Aboriginal rock art sites of Kakadu. There’s plenty to see and do in Humpty Doo, too (try saying that sentence quickly!). Highlights of “The Doo” include the Big Boxing Croc statue, bird-watching at Fogg Dam, and crocodile-watching cruises along the Adelaide River. There’s no camping in the town itself, but you’ll find options close by, ranging from bush camps for self-contained campers to tourist parks with full hookups.
