Itinerary
We ease into our adventure as we travel east towards Fitzroy Crossing. Join the Darlgunya Cultural Walk where our local Indigenous guide greets us with a smoking ceremony and billy tea, then leads a stroll through the remnants of the old postal settlement. Learn about the wild Fitzroy River: its plants, wildlife and significance to local culture. (L/D)
Departing Fitzroy Crossing, we travel into the Wunaamin Miliwundi Ranges and the adventure of Tunnel Creek, a cave system carved through the Napier Range, discover stalactites and a large variety of wildlife. Also learn the legend of Jandamarra, an Aboriginal freedom fighter who used the tunnel as a hideout in the late 1800’s. In the afternoon, we continue towards the Gibb River Road, reaching Silent Grove in time to set up camp and settle down for a delicious campfire dinner under the famous Kimberley night sky. (B/L/D)
Discover Adcock Gorge, surrounded by rainforest and sandstone ranges. An afternoon swim at Galvans Gorge, amongst water lilies and boab trees, offers the chance to freshen up again before we settle into our camp on Mt Barnett Cattle Station at a billabong oasis in the heart of gorge country. (B/L/D)
Today we explore the remote and spectacular Manning Gorge surrounded by high cliffs. Cross the meandering Manning River – either swimming or by pulley boat! – and take on a bushwalk to the impressive Manning Falls. There is nothing quite like swimming in deep clear pools surrounded by a rugged natural landscape. In the afternoon, relax and swim by the Manning River before we get the camp fire going for dinner. (B/L/D)
Return to Silent Grove to set up camp and enjoy lunch before we explore the spectacular Dalmanyi (Bell Gorge) in the ancient Wunaamin Miliwundi Ranges. This idyllic retreat boasts majestic cascading waterfalls and crystal clear pools formed over millions of years. (B/L/D)
Returning to the Gibb River Road we visit Norval Art Gallery in Derby and the renowned ‘Boab Prison Tree’ then begin our journey back into Broome. (B/L)
