Prison Boab Tree

Windjana Gorge

Tunnel Creek

A day experiencing inland Kimberley. Three of the Kimberley's well-known icons, the Prison Boab Tree, Windjana Gorge and Tunnel Creek leave you with a great insight into this remote and fascinating part of outback Australia.

We set off on our journey heading north to Willare Bridge, we cross the mighty Fitzroy River and make a visit to one of the Kimberley's most famous landmarks the Prison Boab Tree, once used to house convicts. Whilst here we also view Myall's Bore; a 120 metre long trough built in the early 1900's used to water up to 1,000 head of cattle at one time. We leave the coast and travel inland along the famous 'Gibb River Road', once used as the main stock route for the region, before turning off to the pre-historic Windjana Gorge, regarded as one of the classic features of world geology and a great freshwater crocodile spotting site.

From here we head to Tunnel Creek, an amazing 750 metre long flooded tube tunnel. We take an exciting walk through the tunnel wading through knee to thigh high water in some sections and hear the story of Jandamarra . Following afternoon tea, we set off back to Broome with arrival approximately 10.30 pm after an en route dinner stop (own expense).

Important Note: Accessing Tunnel Creek walk involves 20 metres of clambering over boulders and 700 metres of wading through knee to thigh high water (shorts are ideal). Strap on sandals or old sandshoes must be worn through the water as the rocky creek bed can cause cuts. To safely navigate the tunnel passengers must be able to walk and balance themselves independently on uneven ground. Torches are provided.
