A Local's Guide To The Top Kimberley Attractions For Travellers

It's good you're planning for guided tours Kimberley. The Kimberley region is one of Australia's most remote and wild corners. It's also one of the few places where you can see a star-filled sky in all its glory, as well as animals from around the world. Here we'll tell you about the best destinations for nature lovers in this incredible corner of Australia

Gibb River Road

The Gibb River Road is a remote and unsealed road that runs through the Kimberley. It's a must-do for any visitor to the region if you're on guided tours Kimberley, as it takes you into some of Australia's most spectacular landscapes and offers a unique glimpse into Aboriginal culture.

The Gibb River Road begins in Derby, a small town approximately 5 hours north of Broome and ends at Kununurra on the northern edge of Lake Argyle – over 600km away from where you started!

Purnululu National Park (Bungle Bungles)

Location: The park is located in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, approximately 350km from Kununurra and 600km from Broome. It's also home to one of the largest inland waterfalls in Australia, known as Gregory Falls.

Accessibility: Accessible by road only; four-wheel drive is required for travel within the park.

Safety: Visitors should be mindful of their surroundings at all times, as this is an extremely remote area where wildlife can be unpredictable.

Kimberley Wildlife Park

The Kimberley Wildlife Park is a wildlife park in Broome, Western Australia.

It is home to many Australian animals, including kangaroos and koalas.

The park has a large collection of native Australian birds as well as some other animals like dingoes and crocodiles.

Mirror perfection on Lake Argyle

Once you've had your fill of the botanical gardens, it's time to make your way to Lake Argyle. The Lake is home to many freshwater fish species that had adapted to freshwater environments after being trapped on higher ground when the area was flooded during construction.

You can take part in a range of activities at this beautiful natural wonderland, including fishing, swimming and boating (for which there are several rental companies). If you'd rather explore on foot, then why not try walking or cycling along one of the many scenic walking trails?

Another magic night at Manning Gorge

The Manning Gorge Reserve is situated on the outskirts of Kimberley and can be reached by car in about 10 minutes. There are several picnic spots for families or groups to enjoy a meal, as well as a swimming hole if you want to cool off on guided tours Kimberley after exploring the gorge. It's also possible to book campsites here.

A short walk from here takes visitors past the ruins of an old homestead called "Goldschmidt House", where German immigrant Carl Goldschmidt lived until his death during World War 1 (1914), after which his house fell into disrepair until it too was restored thanks recently largely due to grants from Australia's National Trust who helped fund its restoration back into its former glory when it opened its doors again for business during 2012/2013 seasons only!

Conclusion

The Kimberley region is a spectacular place to visit. The Botanical Gardens, Wildlife Park and Lake Argyle all make this region one of the most visited places in Australia.
