ROCK ART
In 2016 we visited many locations in Australia that has Aboriginal Rock Paintings and soon became fascinated with the artwork and its history.
These locations were in the Northern Territory, Western Australia and North Queensland. We visited them by both car and yacht.
As we visit more areas, we will add them to this page.

Christian is a Kakadu Park Ranger/Tour Guide and is passionate about Aboriginal Culture and in particular the Aboriginal Rock Art in the area. We learnt more from him about rock art in a single morning than all the other research we have done combined!!
