Day 1
- Broome to Windjana Gorge (BC)
Out of Broome we stop briefly at Willare Bridge, where a rushing
torrent of water flows in the mighty Fitzroy River during
the wet season. From here we leave the bitumen behind as we
head for the Oscar Range and on to Tunnel Creek, where a 750
metre tunnel passes under the Napier Range. The area has a
rich bushranger history - ask your guide for the true story!
(LD)
Day 2
- Windjana Gorge to Mt Barnett (C)
We explore Windjana Gorge (there's loads of freshwater crocodiles
here!) before we hit the track again to travel along the famous
Gibb River. Depending on the time of year, we may be able
to explore Galvins or Adcock Gorge, before setting up camp
at Manning Gorge.
(BLD)
Day 3
- Gibb River Road and Gorges (BC)
Today it's time for swimming and hiking in the Kimberley's!
Explore the striking Manning gorge and time permitting, we
head into Barnett Gorge. Your experienced Guide will use their
local knowledge to determine the best gorges for you to explore.
We're in for another night under the stars at our bush camp.
(BLD)
Day 4
- Gibb River Road to El Questro Station (C)
We pass through some ancient and spectacular country as we
travel along the Gibb River Road. Crossing the Pentecost River,
we reach the famous El Questro Station. We walk into the beautiful
Cockburn Ranges for a swim under the waterfall at Emma Gorge
before retiring for the night.
(BLD)
Day 5
- El Questro to Bungle Bungles (BC)
Today sit back and admire the awesome scenery of the Carr
Boyd and Durack Ranges as we head to Turkey Creek. We take
a challenging 4WD trip into the Bungle Bungle (Purnululu)
National Park for sunset over the Osmond Ranges and our overnight
camp.
(BLD)
Day 6
- Bungle Bungle NP (BC)
It's a full day of exploration today. The rock formations
of the Bungle Bungles massif are remarkable and we visit breathtaking
Echidna Chasm and the overwhelming and magnificent Cathedral
Gorge. There's time to get another perspective of the Bungles
by helicopter if you choose (at own expense) before we head
back to our overnight bush camp.
(BLD)
Day 7 - Bungle-Bungles
to Kununurra (C)
It's time for some 4WD action as we wind our way out of the
Bungle Bungles on our way to Kununurra. Time permitting we
will have the opportunity to explore the Hidden Valley, just
a stones throw from Kununurra township.
