“A good traveller has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving.” - Lao Tzu
Kununurra is the eastern gateway to the Kimberley and is a very long way from just about everywhere! On arrival into town, we paused for a mandatory Covid test, then headed straight to Ord Valley Delight (HipCamp) for a peaceful 3-night isolation stay.
Finally free to explore, we enjoyed losing ourselves in the vast, rugged red landscape, remarkable waterways and lush farmlands around Kununurra ... surprising & awe-inspiring!
It's easy to see why a week is not long enough with Kununurra being jam-packed with unique places to visit and things to see including -
Hoochery Distillery is the oldest operating legal still in WA
Kelly’s Knob with panoramic views over the town and surrounding ranges
Ivanhoe Crossing is an iconic causeway built over the mighty Ord River
Zebra Rock Gallery with its unique stone pieces
Lake Argyle is a vast freshwater lake nestled amongst the rugged billion-year-old landscape
Lake Kununurra a haven for swimmers, anglers, bird watchers and water sports enthusiasts alike
Mirima National Park is often described as the mini-Bungles
Ord River Diversion Dam designed to divert water from the Ord River onto the Ivanhoe Plain for irrigation
Argyle Homestead Museum originally built in 1895 by the Durack family
Two local secrets earmarked on WikiCamps (ssshhhh)
Time to hit the road!
