The Nawarla Gabarnmang massive rock shelter is one of the oldest known Aboriginal sites in Australia. The aboriginal region is called Jawoyn Country. Narwala Gabarnmang is covered on its ceiling and pillars with rock art, and only accessible by a 90 minute helicopter journey from the outback town of Katherine.
