Before you go into Kununurra  Do do at least an overnight at Zebra Rock Mine on the Duncan Rd  . The Sunset tour of the wetlands is to be on any Bucket List  . The fishing tour will chock up the fridge with fresh fish . Really well worth the time    :cup:     
My parents were just there last week and absolutely raved about it too.


They're also doing the Mimbi Caves tour on the way between Halls Creek and Fitzroy Crossing. We didn't get there on our trip, but I'll let you know whether they thought it was worth the stop Mark.  http://www.mimbicaves.com.au

Yep. It really is special.

It's relatively unknown at the moment, but give it a year or two....

Looks a good trip and plenty of time to enjoy and explore.
Did same trip in 2011 only the other way from Alice to Broome then Middle Lagoon (Magic Place) then Derby and Gibb River road
Only places I didn't see was El Questro and Bungle Bungles.
Will have to put that trip in my diary as I would love to go back as there was so much I didn't see last time.

I love work! I could watch it all day.

Dusty road

If its OK I would like to suggest having a look at Mornington-Marion Downs.

I have camped there twice and it has excellent facilities for camping and some great attractions like Diamond gorge and Sir John gorge which don't have hoards of visitors and just as spectacular as most other places.

Link for those that may wish to visit.

.....Middle Lagoon (Magic Place)...

Agree with that, but camp fees raised eyebrows......

Not sure where to post this but thought he was as good as any.  Relates to the Kimberley.  Just found this on Faceless book.

I have been doing some more planning and reading to get the Itineray sorted. Currently doing research on the Cape Leveque area.

I will break the Itineray up into 4 sections in 4 separate threads to make it easy.

We are currently in Katherine and have found a caravan park that will suit the group.

Whoa, just checked the Mornington camp prices. That's $60 for an unpowered site for our family. No wonder its not crowded.
