Why you'll love this trip

  • Spend every night camping in the Australian Outback, under a star-studded Milky Way sky. There is little, if any, reception out here, so it’s the perfect chance to disconnect, recharge and get back to basics in the heart of nature.
  • Explore Lake Argyle and take an optional cruise on the still waters, looking out for crocodiles, wallabies and rare birds against the mountain island backdrop.
  • Spend two days exploring the Bungle Bungles – including gorges, unique rock formations, hidden waterholes, sandstone towers, Echidna Chasm and Cathedral Gorge.
  • Take refreshing swims in rock pools, waterfalls and watering holes, travel along the Gibb River Road in a 4WD and hike through rivers past towering red cliffs, rocks and spires.
  • Explore the unique geology of Dimalurru (Tunnel Creek) – a limestone cave system home to bats, stalactites and fascinating First Nations history.
