Eden at Fogg Dam
Fogg Dam

Eden at Fogg Dam is a great place for birds and wildlife. It?s superbly located on the doorststep of Fogg Dam Nature Reserve, backing onto Harrison Dam and en route to World Heritage Kakadu National Park. Fogg Dam is known internationally as a birdwatcher?s paradise because the diversity of habitat, open water, floodplain, monsoon and paperbark forest environments attracts a wide variety of birds. In season masses of beautiful waterlilies cover water. Sunrise at Fogg Dam is memorable: seeing the sky color with the first light of day and hearing a wonderful dawn chorus of birds. The dam wall (about 1km long) and observation platforms provide excellent viewing of water birds plus frogs, lizards, goanas, turtles, wallabies, dingoes, snakes (mainly water pythons) and perhaps a crocodile. Board walks offer different habitat experiences. The weight of wildlife in 1 square km at Fogg Dam is reputed to be greater than the same area on the Serengeti plains of Africa! Our property is 103 acres (42 hectares) registered with Land for Wildlife with half natural bush and the remainder certified organic tropical fruit farm. We invite you to quality accommodation in the bush in our home of traditional Darwin tropical design: elevated with cross ventilation and a full length veranda upstairs on the sunny side.
