Geography


Dundee Forest consists of land extending from the coastline of Bynoe Harbour in the north to just south of the Fog Bay Road which passes through the locality on its way from the Cox Peninsula Road in the east to Fog Bay in the west. Dundee Forest and the other two nearby localities prefixed with the name "Dundee" are named after the sub-divisions with these names. The name "Dundee" is believed to be derived from the 1986 film, Crocodile Dundee. The boundaries for Dundee Forest were gazetted on 29 October 1997 with the gazettal being revoked on 3 April 2007 with new boundaries being gazetted on 4 April 2007. [3][9][1]

Dundee Forest is located within the federal division of Lingiari, the territory electoral division of Daly and within the unincorporated areas of the Northern Territory.[7][6][5]
