Nature’s Way: The Remote North

Your Itinerary

Broome

Day 1 - Welcome to Broome

Welcome to Broome. Upon arrival at the airport, you will be picked up and transferred to your hotel. Enjoy the rest of the day at leisure. Stroll along famous Cable Beach or visit a pearl farm. (Ochre Moon Bed & Breakfast)

Boab Tree

Day 2 - Broome to Mount Hart

Depart Broome early this morning as you have a long drive ahead of you (450 kms). Head back inland on the Great Northern Highway, and turn left onto the Derby Highway. Derby is the base for much of the Western Kimberley region and the stepping point to some of the best scenery in northern Australia. Giant Boab Trees majestically line the town’s streets. Mt Hart is 3.5 hours from Derby along the Gibb River Road. (Mount Hart Wilderness Lodge & Homestead)

Day 3 - Mount Hart to Mount Elizabeth

On the way to Mount Elizabeth today you might like to discover the fascinating Bell Gorge – probably one of the most beautiful ones in the whole of the Kimberley region, and a spectacular spot for swimming, photography and enjoying what nature has to offer. Later on, continue along the Gibb River Road to Mount Elizabeth Station, a working cattle station in the heart of the Kimberleys. (Mount Elizabeth Station)

Day 4 - Mount Elizabeth to El Questro Wilderness Park

Another full day of discovering the Kimberley region. Head towards Home Valley Station, an outback oasis nestled at the foot of the spectacular Cockburn Range, and then towards El Questro Wilderness Park. The journey takes you past the popular swimming spot at Durack River crossing and the stunning Pentecost River. Over 1 million acres in size, El Questro is located in the untamed Kimberley region and extends for approximately 80 kilometres into its heart, most of which has never been explored. It is one of Australia’s last true frontiers. (Emma Gorge Resort)

Day 5 - Another day at El Questro Wilderness Park

Free day to explore the many attractions in the El Questro region. Rise early if you want to visit the famous Zebedee Thermal Springs as they are only open 0530 – 12noon and are very popular. Visit Emma Gorge, El Questro’s most famous gorge. This scenic trail takes you along dramatically changing vegetation, from savannah woodland to Kimberley rainforest. The 1.6 km walk is rewarding as the cool Emma Gorge pool and permanent waterfalls await you at the end.

Day 6 - El Questro to Kununurra

Soon after leaving El Questro, you will arrive at Kununurra. The town was planned around the huge Lake Argyle Dam project which opened up large areas to year round agricultural activities. The region is a ‘fruit bowl’ for Western Australia and products such as melons or pumpkins are successfully shipped across the continent. Depending on your arrival time you might wish to take a scenic flight over the majestic Bungle Bungles & Lake Argyle or do an afternoon cruise. (The Kimberly Grande Resort)

Continue travelling to Katherine, home of the Nitmiluk National Park. (Nitmiluk Chalets)

Day 8 - Katherine to Kakadu

The park has been awarded a double listing on UNESCO’s World Heritage list, one for its cultural significance, the other for its natural assets and the enormously diverse local flora and fauna. (Cooinda Lodge Kakadu)

Day 10 - Kakadu to Darwin

Arrive into Darwin late afternoon, return your rental vehicle and enjoy the remainder of your stay in the Northern Territory’s main city. There are many things to see and do; visit the city’s bustling markets at Mindil Beach or wander along the lush Esplanade. (Palm City Resort).
