Die Region Daly River liegt an einer malerischen Straße auf halber Strecke zwischen Darwin und Katherine und ist berühmt für ihre Fischerei.

Der Daly River fließt unter anderem durch die traditionellen Länder der Jawoyn-, Wagiman-, Malak-Malak-, Marranunggu-, Marrathiel- und Wadjigan-Völker.
Wenn Ihnen Camping am Herzen liegt, können Sie Ihr Lager in einem der vielen malerischen Caravanparks am Flussufer oder auf bewirtschafteten Campingplätzen in der Region Daly River und der angrenzenden Region Douglas Daly aufschlagen – aber reservieren Sie Ihren Platz unbedingt online über Parks NT, bevor Sie losfahren!
Das Merrepen Arts Center in der örtlichen Nauiyu-Gemeinde ist in der Region Daly River einen Besuch wert. Aborigine-Künstler sind oft vor Ort und kreieren ihre Werke. Sie können die Künstler unterstützen, indem Sie ein Gemälde, einen Siebdruck, einen handbedruckten Stoff, eine Weberei oder ein Schmuckstück kaufen, um sich an Ihre Reise zu erinnern.
Der Zugang zum Daly River erfolgt über asphaltierte Straßen abseits des Stuart Highway direkt hinter der Gemeinde Adelaide River oder für Allrad-Enthusiasten über den Reynolds River Track durch den Litchfield National Park.
