Kakadu Culture Camp Sorry... we are closed! The Kakadu Culture Camp is owned and operated by the Hunter family from Kakadu National Park.

We are all working as Kakadu Park Rangers and closed up our camp at Muirella Park... you can still see us at the annual Taste of Kakadu Festival cooking up Buffalo in the 'Gungerre' Ground Ovens! It was a dream of their late Grandfather Namandjalorrwokwok to establish a camp where Bininj (Aboriginal) people could live and work, and share their culture, traditional heritage and amazing wildlife wit

h tourists from around the world. The Hunter family is Fred, Jenny, Dell and Douglas; all born and bred at Madjinbardi (Mudginberri Buffalo Station) on the edge of the famous Magela wetlands in what was later to become Kakadu National Park, proclaimed in 1979. Their clan is Bolmo Deidjrungi; and they are traditional owners of country covering areas in the freshwater reaches of the nearby East Alligator River. During the ‘wet’, the family live at their outstation on the Bowali Creek in central Kakadu, and move to Djarradjin in the ‘dry’ season to operate the culture camp. The Hunter family are all members of Kakadu’s Gagudju and Djabulukgu Associations, and also Warddeken Land Management Ltd. Warddeken’s membership is Traditional Owners of West Arnhem Land, one of their aims is to maintain their land through extended walks through country employing a traditional fire burning regime. Fred and Jenny have been working as Kakadu Park Rangers since they left school and take leave during the dry (tourist) season to run the Kakadu Culture Camp. Because most of our activities are at night several other Kakadu Park Rangers and members from our extended family also work at the camp after hours. Our mob all live in a tent at the culture camp from April-October, and love it!
