Description
Mary River National Park is located in the northern most part of the Northern Territory in tropical wetland, savanna and woodland country 100 km east from Darwin. This Joint Management Plan sets out how the values of this park will be protected and enhanced. Construction of new all-weather accessible infrastructure, including viewing platforms, walkways and bird hides, will increase visitor enjoyment of the park. The visitor experience will be further enriched through stories of the area's Aboriginal cultural heritage as told by it's Traditional Owners. The Plan also encourages commercial enterprise, particularly where visitor opportunities are enhanced and employment of Traditional Owners and their families are provided. - Executive Summary.,
