One of Litchfield National Park’s most captivating natural wonders is the extraordinary magnetic termite mounds. These towering structures are a testament to the incredible engineering abilities of these tiny insects. To fully appreciate these architectural marvels, head to the designated viewing area just off Litchfield Park Road. Explore the boardwalks to get up close to the two-meter-high magnetic termite mounds and the even taller, four-meter-high cathedral termite mounds. An information shelter provides fascinating insights into the lives of these creatures and their impact on the ecosystem. As you explore, you'll be amazed by their uniform shape and north-south alignment. Remember to respect the delicate environment and avoid disturbing the mounds.
