Comparison of walking fees with other jurisdictions
New fees for the walking trails were developed by creating a comparison of other great walks throughout Australia and New Zealand.
The comparison chart below shows the price for similar distance multi-day walks with some including a trail only fee and others including no trail fee but a compulsory camp fee. The NT’s new fee structure, showing Jatbula as an example, is competitively priced.
