Ubirr is located in the East Alligator region of Kakadu National Park, and is famous for its rock art. It consists of a group of rock outcrops on the edge of the Nadab floodplain where there are several natural shelters that have a collection of Aboriginal rock paintings, some of which are many thousands of years old. The art depicts certain creation ancestors as well as animals from the area such as barramundi, catfish, mullet, long-necked turtles, pig-nosed turtles, rock ringtail possums, and wallabies.
