Guide to Litchfield

The ancestral lands of the Djowei, Woolner and Larrakia Indigenous people, Litchfield adopted its modern moniker when European settlers passed through in 1864 ̶ Frederick Henry Litchfield was an early European explorer in the Northern Territory. It benefitted from the construction of the Overland Telegraph Line in the 1880s and post-WWI expansion accelerated in the 1970s. The beautiful Litchfield National Park is now the main attraction to many.
