King Leopold Ranges Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

The Gibb River Road is an absolutely amazing experience. Its in my Top 5 List of Places to Visit in Australia and it is truly a special destination with postcard perfect waterholes, pounding waterfalls and spectacular sunsets over one of Australia's most picturesque ranges, the Cockburns! (not pronounced as dirty as its spelt, but rather as 'coburn'.) 

You can hire a 4WD from Broome or Kununurra or jump on a tour with one of the off-road tour buses.

An amazing drive from El Questro Station along the Gibb River Road to Home Valley Station.
The Pentecost River Crossing.  AMAZING!!!!
This is purportedly the most popular park in the Kimberley region, arguably one of Australia's most iconic outback locations.
Along the Gibb River Road, make sure to stop and at least spend one evening at Windjana Gorge. At dusk, tens of thousands of bats fly out of the gorge and you can occasionally hear small freshwater crocodiles jumping out of the water trying to catch one for dinner. It's a surreal experience in The Australian Outback! #SMDdoesOZ #TheOutback #Australia

Naming of location was misleadng. (Bell Gorge is nowhere near property which is located in a unattractive area). Staff were a bit over the season and not as willing to help as other Kimberley places we visited. Maybe could benefit from extra training or maybe difficult to attract good staff to a ...

After very long and delayed flight, I phoned at about 8pm local time, but no-one to take call so I left my name and number for call back. I tried again 10 minutes later. Again, no-one available. I tried a third time but no-one available. ...
