The Pilbara, the oldest known landscape on Earth, is estimated to be more than two and a half billion years old and how beautifully it has aged. With its sheer gorges, you can see where nature has carved deep lines of time into the landscape. There is no better place to witness this than at Karijini National Park.
Karijini has spectacular 100-metre sheer-sided ochre-coloured chasms. Hidden amongst this ruggedness are crystal clear rock pools, cascading waterfalls and tropical fern environments each offering easy walking track or viewing platform access.
The tour explores the Weano recreation area including Oxer Lookout, a towering but safe precipice overlooking the juncture of Weano, Joffre, Hancock and Red Gorges, with a walk through Weano to Handrail Pool (water levels permitting). Following a relaxing morning cuppa, the next stop is Joffre Falls lookout for a photo stop. A refreshing salad and meat pack lunch is taken at the Karijini Visitors Centre.
The Karijini Visitor Centre houses a wealth of Aboriginal culture, pastoral history, flora, fauna, geological information and displays.
Their final stop is at the Dales Gorge area which includes Circular Pool, Fortescue Falls and a swim at Fern Pool.
