For a taste of stunning outback scenery, visit Dan͟ggu National Park, home to Dan͟ggu Geikie Gorge - just 20 minutes from Fitzroy Crossing in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. OThe flood waters of the Fitzroy River have carved out the ancient 30 metre deep gorge through Geikie Range.
Bunuba Aboriginal people are the traditional owners and are joint park managers.
See layers of fossils and an ancient reef, which show glimpses of life before reptiles or mammals evolved.
Admire the steep 30 metre high rock walls, dazzling water reflections, fresh water fish, crocodiles and stingrays. The fresh water crocs aren't considered a threat if undisturbed – so you can even swim off the sand banks!
River gum trees, freshwater mangroves, native figs and pandanus line the edges of the river and support fruit bats and a rich variety of bird life.
Please note that boat tours remain closed due to infrastructure damage caused by the flooding of Bandaraln͟garri (Fitzroy River) in January 2023. While remedial works are ongoing, a walking trail is open for visitors to experience this impressive gorge.
