Nourlangie (Burrungkuy)

The walls of the Burrungkuy (Nourlangie) rock art site, in World Heritage-listed Kakadu National Park, have served as a shelter and canvas for thousands of years. The paintings are a window to a rich spiritual tradition and can be reached by the circular 1.5km Burrungkuy (Nourlangie) rock art walk.

Kakadu National Park is a living cultural landscape with exceptional natural and cultural values. Kakadu has been home to Aboriginal people for more than 50,000 years, and many of the park's extensive rock art sites date back thousands of years.

Namarrkon is an important creation ancestor who is responsible for the violent lightning storms that occur every tropical summer. The band running from Namarrkon's left ankle to his hands and head and down to his right ankle represents the lightning he creates.
