The Kimberleys - a true world wilderness area

-

The Kimberley in Western Australia’s North West is one of the world’s last true wilderness areas.

A land of spectacula­r natural beauty, some of the region’s highlights include the pearling town of Broome, the unique beehive formations of the Bungle Bungle Range in the World Heritage listed Purnululu National Park, Australia’s only Horizontal Waterfalls at Talbot Bay, the epic Gibb River Road, Lake Arygle, and many more.

Hidden in the region’s heart, vast wildlife sanctuarie­s, spectacula­r gorges and thundering waterfalls provide the perfect backdrop for a Kimberley holiday adventure in Western Australia’s north. And on its coast lie some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, untouched coral atolls and rugged islands with an amazing variety of marine life.

Wilderness adventures can be found in every corner of the region. There is Western Australia’s World Heritage listed Purnululu National Park, featuring the famous beehive-shaped Bungle Bungles or there is the magnificen­t Mitchell River National Park and the beautiful waterways of Geike Gorge National Park.

In Kimberley one can follow ancient cave systems at Tunnel Creek National Park, or walk through the spectacula­r Windjana Gorge. One could explore one of the world’s largest meteorite craters at Wolfe Creek Crater National Park.
