WILDERNESS ADVENTURES

With an early departure from Brome, we head towards the famous Gibb River Road where we join the Fairfield Leopold Road tracking through a stunning landscape of Boab trees and limestone escarpments arriving at Tunnel Creek, a 750-metre cave system carved through the Napier Range, in which we discover stalactites, secret caves and a variety of wildlife. It is here we also hear of the legend of Jandamarra, an Aboriginal freedom fighter who used the tunnel as a hide out in the late 1800’s. Our journey continues to the stunning natural beauty of Windjana Gorge with spectacular cliffs and an opportunity to get up close (but not too close!) with the endemic freshwater crocodile. After the Gorge we hit the Gibb River Road, the legendary track completed in the 1960’s to expedite the movement of cattle from remote pastoral leases. Today it’s been upgraded and maintained by main roads however still presents a challenge to the intrepid traveler and is closed by the numerous water crossings during much of the seasonal wet. Along the Gibb we traverse through the scenic King Leopold Ranges arriving at our comfortable wilderness accommodation

country. Firstly, visiting Galvans Gorge then travelling East we get an appreciation of the harsh, but inspiring, country that these early
cattle men and their families set through in the hope of improving their lives. Many came and went, some perished, however others
were the backbone of opening up Northern Australia and their legacy lives on. This afternoon we arrive at our accommodation in the
heart of a working cattle station.

Departing El Questro and the Gibb River Road, this morning we journey deep into what is sure to be a highlight of our journey, the World Heritage protected Purnululu National Park, a spectacular wilderness region that is home to some of the country’s most striking geological formations. Travel the Spring Creek Track and discover the magnitude of Purnululu as we hike to Echidna Chasm, a spectacular natural cleft in the rock. Narrow in width, with walls reaching 100-metres high, the chasm is a must see in the Kimberley as the afternoon light sees it at its most glorious. This evening, we arrive at the private Bungle Bungles Lodge, our home for the next 2 nights.

We have a full day to continue our exploration of this extraordinary natural wonder, including the famous Bungle Bungle domes.
Rivers created this landscape of unique orange and black striped ‘beehive’ geological formations over a period of 20 million years.
Unbelievably, only the locals knew it existed until the early 1980’s; once discovered by others, the area was made a national park in 1987. We take a short walk into stunning Cathedral Gorge, where towering rocks create a natural amphitheater and will have time in the afternoon to take a highly recommended optional helicopter flight that puts the whole area into a spectacular perspective. This evening views another glorious sunset once again enjoying drinks & nibbles.
