Territory
Northern Territory is a vast, fascinating Australian federal territory. It encompasses a total area of 1.35 million sq km with a population of only 209 000. The capital, Darwin in the far north, is a busy cosmopolitan city of 110 000 people - the least populated of all Australian capitals but definitely the most populated city in the Territory. The Stuart Hwy (known locally as 'The Track') begins here, runs through Alice Springs all the way to Adelaide, South Australia ' a distance of over 3 000 km. The Territory is divided into 3 sections. The 'Top End' which is home to Arnhem Land (Aboriginal land) and the world-famous Kakadu NP with its breathtaking wetlands and wildlife. It is one of Australia's most important heritage regions covering an area of 1 307 300 ha. Just off NT's coast are the Tiwi Islands, home to the Tiwi people. This tropical area has distinct wet and dry seasons. The wet season (Nov-Apr) experiences high temperatures, humidity & tropical storms resulting in a lush green landscape. The dry season (May-Oct) has warm, sunny & dry days with low humidity.
