For many, the Kimberley is considered Australia’s final frontier. Wild and remote, it’s a massive region that is three times the size of the UK (and bigger than 75% of the world’s countries!) Amazingly, many people have never heard of the Kimberley and there are lots of Australians who mistakenly believe that the Kimberley is in the Northern Territory. In fact, it occupies a rather large chunk of the northern part of Western Australia. The region has few sealed roads, with plenty of dirt tracks offering intrepid travellers the ultimate opportunity for adventure.

The raw beauty of the region must be seen to be believed. An excursion up the coastline (by boat, as there are very few roads) offers magnificent scenery including towering coastal gorges and waterfalls, tidal phenomena such as the Horizontal Falls, great fishing and ancient Aboriginal art decorating cave walls. A 4×4 expedition into the Kimberley’s vast interior reveals pristine gorges and swimming holes, Aboriginal communities and cattle stations, sprawling savannahs and a few surprises such as Zebedee hot springs, tucked amongst a forest of Livistona palms.
