Day 1

Depart Kununurra, and head south on the Great Northern Highway past sprawling cattle country, stopping along the way for lunch. Visit a local Indigenous community (when available). Later this afternoon arrive at the award winning Bungle Bungle Wilderness Lodge, perfectly positioned in an idyllic bush setting giving you the opportunity to relax and appreciate the park's tranquil beauty. Spend time on your private deck relaxing and observing the birdlife. Tonight enjoy a delicious set three-course dinner prepared by the chef and served on the dining deck. (Lunch/Dinner)

Day 2

After breakfast head to the southern end of Purnululu National Park. Walk along the dry riverbed of Piccaninny Creek for a closer inspection of the striped beehive domes arriving at The Window, a natural hole in the ancient rock formation. Marvel at the majesty of Cathedral Gorge and test out the acoustics of this natural amphitheatre. Perhaps take a helicopter sightseeing flight over the Bungle Bungle Range (own expense). Enjoy an impressive Kimberley sunset with drinks in hand, overlooking the Bungle Bungle escarpment as the colours of sandstone deepen to red. (Breakfast / Lunch / Dinner)

 Day 3

Today, embark on an in-depth exploration of the northern section of the Bungle Bungle Range. Begin with a short walk to Osmand Lookout for spectacular views over the Osmand Range and surrounding landscape. Next, follow a dry creek bed to reveal the unique Echidna Chasm. Venture deep into this natural cleft in the rock, which in places is over 200 metres deep yet barely wide enough to pass through. Join a hike along a Livistona palm-fringed trail to see the spectacular natural wonder of Mini Palms. Walk along the dry creek bed for an unforgettable view into a subterranean oasis where hundreds of ancient palm species are surrounded by towering cliffs. Travel back to Kununurra, where your unforgettable Kimberley adventure concludes today.

A good level of fitness is essential for you to undertake walks in hot conditions and over rugged terrain with uneven and sometimes slippery surfaces. Some walks will require you to clamber over large boulders up to one metre high. Sturdy walking shoes are an absolute must on all adventures. Please enquire about our Health and Fitness Mobility checklist at the time of booking.
