The Coomalie community directory brings together essential services like health, disability and ageing support, community clubs and halls, Aboriginal and cultural services, education and training, legal and advocacy programs, environment and conservation, and recreation.
It also includes crisis support, accommodation, transport and youth programs, plus volunteering and self‑help groups across categories such as sport, arts, communication, and welfare assistance.
Due to the remote nature of the Coomalie, many specialised health, legal and social services are provided by visiting specialists or regional organisations, complemented by programs run locally by community groups.
Coomalie Region
South of Darwin, the Coomalie region is best known as the gateway to Litchfield National Park and home to the town of Batchelor. Historical sites like Rum Jungle and the Batchelor Museum tell stories of mining and wartime aviation. Nearby, cascades and swimming holes at Florence Falls and Wangi Falls offer respite from tropical heat. Locals swim at lesser‑known spots along Walker Creek and enjoy picnicking by the peaceful Rum Jungle Lake, a legacy of the old uranium mine.
Council has an approximate area of 2,100 km².
