We are walking the Jatbula trail and arriving by plane.
Can anyone let me know where we can buy Shellite fuel in Darwin city?

Appreciate any details.

Not sure about Darwin but there were at least 2 camping shops in Katherine if that helps. It should be hot enough without cooking!!!

We got ours at Bunnings, Palmerston after looking around a fair bit.

Not sure if they stock shellite, but NT General Store in the CBD area is a large camping store that seems reasonably stocked. I made a quick stop there for some small supplies.

NT General Store will have it. They are happy to take an order over the phone and hold it for you.
