Broome to the Bungle Bungle
Trip Details
Discover the untamed beauty of the Australian outback and dive head first into an ancient desert reef on this five-day adventure through the Kimberley. From Broome to the Bungle Bungle Ranges, via the dry and dusty Gibb River Road, we explore the million-year-old rock formations by foot and 4x4. From the curious 'beehives' to the dramatic Windjana, Geikie and Cathedral Gorge walls, past the rock paintings in the Tunnel Creek caves and through the palm gardens in the Echidna Chasm, this outback journey into one of the most desolate parts of the earth will be an unforgettable travel experience.
