What’s in it for you?
• Immerse yourself in ancient landscapes & camp in remote wilderness

• Liaise with Park Rangers & report any issues
When and where:
• Our season runs April – September with some northern sites opening slightly later
• We have 9 participating campgrounds across the NT, varying in scenery, weather and degrees of remoteness so you can choose your own adventure!
• Hosts typically volunteer 4-5 hours a day, 6 days a week for at least 3 weeks, however some of our busier parks such as Litchfield National Park and Karlu Karlu/ Devil’s Marbles Conservation Reserve are now also offering shorter placements.
