Our next destination was Windjana Gorge – the best place to see freshwater crocodiles. The road through Leopold Ranges was perhaps the most picturesque on the entire Gibb River Rd. These hills are just beautiful, plus thousands of baobabs thriving in the most amazing places and dried nearly to dust golden grasses of spinifex. Despite…
In the next part of our Kimberley adventure, we were planning to visit four stunning Kimberley Gorges. First we arrived at Mt Elizabeth Station, located 30 km from Gibb River Road. A sign at the gate reminded us that we were entering the station and asked us not to shoot the cows. We chuckled and…
After leaving Ellenbrae Station, our next major destination was Mitchell Falls, which was still 400 km away.

Katherine – preparation before heading to WA We’ve arrived in Katherine once again, planning to stay for a couple of days before making our way to Lake Argyle. The day started off a bit stressful as we raced around all the caravan parks, trying to find a powered site that wasn’t already taken. Luckily, we…
