Go bushwalking at Dales Gorge and Circular Pool – two of the best spots for a picnic at Karijini National Park in Western Australia's north-west.<br/><br/>Two-billion years in the making, Karijini National Park is one of the country's most spectacular natural attractions offering amazing hiking trails through ancient gorges.<br/><br/>In Dales Gorge, a four-kilometre walk trail runs along the bottom of the gorge. Here you can swim in the stream, permanent water pools and beneath waterfalls. <br/><br/>Lush green ferns and the occasional gum tree contrast with the red-terraced cliffs weathered by time. Give yourself three hours to make the return journey. <br/><br/>The two-hour return hike to Circular Pool involves a loose steep descent and then an easy ramble. Here, you'll find hidden gardens and a clear rock pool. <br/><br/>You can see Circular Pool from a lookout on the Gorge Rim Walk. This walk follows the rim of Dales Gorge between Circular Pool Lookout and the beginning of the Fortescue Falls track. <br/><br/>Karijini National Park is a two-hour drive from the town of Newman and is best accessed by joining a four-wheel drive tour.<br/><br/>Please note that the Circular Pool walking trail is closed due to rain damage and rockfalls.

Fern Pool is one of the most accessible and picturesque swimming spots in Karijini National Park. These cooling waters are fed by a natural spring and framed on all sides by lush green ferns, with a cascading waterfall completing the serenely beautiful setting.<br/><br/>Fern Pool is just above Fortescue Falls in Dales Gorge, on the eastern side of Karijini National Park. Descend the staircase into this ancient cavernous gorge and follow the clear path for 300 metres from Fortescue Falls.<br/><br/>To reach this tropical oasis from Perth, you can take a two-hour flight to Paraburdoo or Newman (two to three hours drive from Karijini), or a 15-hour drive via the Great Northern Highway.<br/><br/>Enjoy a picnic lunch overlooking Fern Pool or Fortescue Falls, follow the four-kilometre trail to Circular Pool for a second swim, or take the Gorge Rim Walk for an eagle's eye view of Circular Pool.

Enter the enchanting chasm of Weano Gorge and follow the winding corridors of striking red rock through two billion years of the Earth’s history to inviting rock pools and waterfalls.<br/><br/>A two-hour flight from Perth will bring you to Paraburdoo or Newman, the closest airports to Karijini National Park, or a 15-hour drive from Perth, via the Great Northern Highway.<br/><br/>The 1-kilometre gorge trail can be accessed from Weano car park, near Oxers Lookout, and leads the adventurous through Weano’s magical narrows and over boulders to reach a refreshingly cool dip at Handrail Pool.<br/><br/>Join a guided tour to experience the thrill of jumping down waterfalls and scaling the epic rock face at "The Centre of the Earth".<br/><br/>There are also easy walk trails around the top of Weano Gorge. These are a delight after good winter rains, when the colours of spring flowers fill the surrounding plains. <br/><br/>Camping is available 10 kilometres south of Weano Gorge – see Rock wallabies at dawn and dusk, plus some 133 varieties of birds and 92 species of amphibians and reptiles that call Karijini home.<br/><br/>Tourists are advised to check for alerts and road/park closures before commencing their travel on www.emergency.wa.gov.au and https://alerts.dbca.wa.gov.au

If you do one thing in Karijini National Park, take the short 15 minute walk from the Weano car park to Oxer Lookout. Take a breath and peer over the edge. Sheer walls plunge 100 metres or more to the gorge floor of layered rock and languid pools. Just as well there is a secure safety railing because it comes up suddenly and can be quite dizzying.<br/><br/>For the geological minded, the lookout is a great location for witnessing the ancient natural elements that carved this massive gash in the red earth. The view looks over the junction of Weano, Red, Hancock and Joffre Gorges. <br/><br/>Karijini National Park has a number of spectacular gorges, cool rugged rock pools, waterfalls, wonderful wildlife and amazing scenery. There are a number of excellent picnic areas and camping grounds within the park. The Karijini National Park is a one hour drive north east of Tom Price and a 16-hour drive from Perth.

Enjoy a waterfall moment at one of Western Australia’s most photographed natural beauty spots, Joffre Falls Lookout in Karijini National Park. Take a walk to the inviting plunge pool at the bottom of Joffre Gorge and a cool, refreshing dip awaits downstream from the falls.<br/><br/>You can choose to make your journey there an epic adventure, by taking the 15-hour outback drive from Perth, or following the legendary Warlu Way from the Coral Coast, or by joining a four wheel drive tour. To get there fast, hop on a 1-hour-and-45-minute flight from Perth to Paraburdoo, and pick up a hire car. The lookout is a one-hour-and-20-minute drive from Karijini Visitor Centre.<br/><br/>From the car park, head to the lookout for dramatic views over the plunge pool at the foot of the natural amphitheatre carved by the falls. Follow the marked 100-metre trail to the base and venture deeper into the gorge on the three-kilometre trail, cooling off with a dip downstream.<br/><br/>While dry for much of the year, the falls are at their best after winter rains.<br/><br/>Choose from the camping and glamping options available in Karijini and explore the park’s ancient landscape of gorges, rock pools and waterfalls.
