Windjana Gorge
National Park |
|
Windjana Gorge National Park is rated as one of the most beautiful of all the gorges in the Kimberley region. Windjana is rich in vegetation and wildlife and offers stunning bushwalking through the outback wilderness.
The walls of Windjana Gorge rise up from floodplain of Lennard River, reaching 100 metres high in some places. Take a dip in refreshing permanent water holes and feel the power of Mother Nature which carved out the gorge over hundreds of millions of years through the limestone of Napier Range. |
|
|
A three and a half kilometre easy walking trail winds through the gorge – you'll see primeval life forms fossilised within the gorge walls. Keep an eye out for birds, fruit bats and fresh water crocodiles. |
