Geike Gorge National Park
Geike Gorge was named after British geologist, Sir Archibald Geikie in 1883. The gorge features steep walls where the river has cut through the Geike Range, exposing a fine section of the Devonian Reef. It is 14 kilometres long, divided into two sections of approximately equal length.
The 30 metre high walls are bleached white by sun and water to a height of about 10 to 12 metres above normal river level and fossils embedded in the limestone may be seen. Features of the gorge include the colours, reflections, freshwater crocodiles, fish and freshwater stingrays which add to the park's fascinating landforms. �You may swim off the sandbank, but care is needed and there are three walking tracks. Wildlife abounds, including freshwater crocodiles which are not generally considered to be a threat to humans if left undisturbed. Because of their significance both banks of the river have been declared a sanctuary. The only permitted area for walking/run along the west bank from the southern boundary of the park to the beginning of the west wall of the gorge. The road is sealed all the way from Fitzroy Crossing. It is suitable for all vehicles, trailers and caravans.

Freshwater crocodiles bask in the pools, while fruit bats and corellas roost in the waterside trees.
Walk the gorge - Walks include the Gorge Walk, which begins at the camping area and winds through the gorge for 3.5km each way. The Short Time Walk takes a look at marine life forms fossilised within the limestone of the gorge walls. The Savannah Walk along the south-eastern wall showcases the plants and animals of the woodlands
Steeped in culture - Aboriginal leader Jandamarra used the gorge as a hideout and was shot and injured at Pigeon�s Rock during a gun battle with Europeans in 1894. Windjana Gorge is a highly spiritual place to Bunuba people and the Wandjina are the powerful creation spirits that reside here. Hence the name Windjana, which was (mis)recorded by William Forrester, who took up a nearby pastoral lease in 1884 and built Lillimooloora Homestead. You can visit the ruins of this homestead.

Gibb River Road from El Questro to Derby

Kimberley rivers:

Western Australia�s Kimberley region has approximately 30 major rivers and many more tributaries and tidal creeks. Kimberley rivers are unique because of their relatively pristine nature. Unlike rivers in many other parts of Australia and the world, most Kimberley rivers are free flowing, their riverside vegetation is relatively intact, and water is not highly extracted or contaminated. In a few cases entire river catchments remain in an almost natural condition, free from significant human disturbance. Many Kimberley rivers are unique and represent important examples of some of Australia�s, and the world�s, last remaining natural river systems.


The Pentecost River and Cockburn Range in the Kimberley Australia
The Pentecost River appears to be a tidal river (in the wet with high tides) in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. The Pentecost rises in the Durack Range and flows north through El Questro Station
Tributaries of the Pentecost include the Chamberlain River, Salmond River, Gap Creek and Five Mile Creek. The Chamberlain and Salmond are both longer than the Pentecost.
Facts at a glance Length 275 km (Pentecost � Chamberlain mainstream) Catchment area 8 940 km Mouth West estuary of the Cambridge Gulf, Wyndham Average annual rainfall 700 mm Annual rainfall range 600 � 750 mm Notable features Salmond and Chamberlain Rivers, Pentecost River crossing, Chamberlain Gorge, Emma Gorge, El Questro Wilderness Park
The Pentecost River flows into the west arm of the Cambridge Gulf. Although the Chamberlain and Salmond rivers are tributaries of the Pentecost River, both are longer than the Pentecost. Other major rivers adjacent to the Pentecost are the Durack, King and Ord. The Durack and King rivers join the Pentecost in the west arm of the Cambridge Gulf and when the sea level was lower they would have been part of the same river system. Visitors can easily reach sections of the Pentecost and Chamberlain rivers from El Questro Wilderness Park.
In its upper reaches the Pentecost River drains the ridges and hills of the Durack Range. The undulating terrain and confined valley give way to an open, broad valley in the middle reaches of the river, before ranges again confine it. The Pentecost River flows through a narrow gorge for approximately 10 kilometres just upstream of its junction with the Chamberlain River. In its lower reaches, below the junction with the Chamberlain River, the Pentecost River has steep cliffs and permanent pools. Its tidal reaches are in more open alluvial country, but it is somewhat confined by the Cockburn Range to the north and hills to the south.
The Chamberlain River is one of the most geologically impressive rivers in the Kimberley, running along a deep, steep-sided valley between the Durack Range and Elgee Cliffs for almost its entire 220 kilometres. Where the valley floor is wide enough, the channel meanders from valley wall to valley wall, but usually it is fairly straight as it has no room to move. The valley is asymmetrical due to its geology: its western side is almost vertical but its eastern side slopes at 45 degrees and is drained by scores of parallel tributaries � each only about 2 kilometres long. Numerous pools punctuate a fairly rocky channel bed. This catchment is extremely narrow.


Mitchell River
Facts at a glance Length 117 km Catchment area 2 970 km Mouth Walmsley Bay Average annual rainfall 1400 mm Annual rainfall range 1300 � 1450 mm Notable features Mitchell Falls, Little Mertens Falls, Big Mertens Falls, Surveyors Pool
The Mitchell River is one of the Kimberley�s best-known rivers and is often visited by tourists.
The spectacular Mitchell Falls are a rewarding sight after the long drive or helicopter flight needed to reach this remote and awe-inspiring area.
Other major rivers nearby are the Prince Regent, Hunter, Scott and Lawley rivers.
The Mitchell River flows north from its headwaters on the Mitchell Plateau into Walmsley Bay and Admiralty Gulf. Its main channel roughly follows the western edge of the junction between the sandstone and overlying volcanic rocks that form the Mitchell Plateau.
The upper reaches of the Mitchell River that drain the rounded volcanic hills of the Mitchell Plateau have a finger-like or �branching� drainage pattern, whereas those draining flattish sandstone country lower down have a more blocky, rectangular pattern due to the weathering of geological fractures.
The middle reaches of the Mitchell River are rocky and little sediment is present in the channel. Long, deep pools are thickly vegetated.
Over time the river has cut into ancient sandstone rock, carving gorges and waterfalls. The largest of these are the Mitchell Falls with their spectacular bare rock walls, The Mitchell Falls are a series of falls 80 metres high with three main sheer steps. Below the falls the Mitchell River is controlled by a geological fracture that runs north�south and forms a narrow estuary over 30 kilometres long.


Durack River
Facts at a glance Length 306 km Catchment area 14 200 km Mouth West estuary of the Cambridge Gulf, Wyndham Average annual rainfall 800 mm Annual rainfall range 630 � 900 mm Notable features Durack Falls, Jacks Waterhole, Scotty Salmond Gorge, Durack, Ellenbrae and Karunjie.
The river was named after Michael �Stumpy� Durack, the first white man to cross the river in 1882.
The Durack River is the fifth longest river in the Kimberley. Despite its length and the familiar name, little is known about it. It discharges into the west arm of the Cambridge Gulf, fed by tributaries such as the Chapman River and Wood, Blackfellow, Campbell and Ellenbrae creeks, which begin in the same ranges as the headwaters of the Fitzroy and Drysdale rivers. The Gibb River Road crosses many of the Durack River�s tributaries.
Little about the Durack River�s ecology is documented. Paperbarks (Melaleuca leucodendra), pandanus and eucalypts are common along banks. . The Durack River is known to host significant but isolated populations of the vulnerable Purple crowned fairy wren (Malurus coronatus).
The Durack River is accessible via the Gibb River road and there are a number of Aboriginal communities located near this river, some active living areas.
The Durack flows through several operating pastoral stations including Home Valley, Ellenbrae, Durack River, El Questro and Pentecost Downs.


Fitzroy River
Facts at a glance Length 624 km Catchment area2 92 000 km Mouth Opening Bay in King Sound Average annual rainfall 500 mm Annual rainfall range 400 � 900 mm Notable features Geikie Gorge, Dimond Gorge, Sir John Gorge, Margaret River pool, Fitzroy Crossing (site of the original crossing), Camballin Irrigation Area and Willare crossing.
By far the mightiest river in the region is the Fitzroy River in the central and western Kimberley. Although other rivers in Western Australia are longer or have larger drainage areas, the Fitzroy River has, on average, the greatest volume of annual flow and the largest floods. The Fitzroy River is also well known for its high cultural and ecological values, with a number of significant species found there. The Margaret, Leopold, Mary, Hann, Adcock and O�Donnell rivers, and Christmas and Geegully creeks, all flow into the Fitzroy River.


Ord River
Facts at a glance Length 588 km (130 km downstream of main dam) Catchment area 53 900 km (main dam 45 200 km2) Mouth Cambridge Gulf Average annual rainfall 560 mm Annual rainfall range 450 � 820 mm Notable features Lake Argyle and the Ord River dam, Lake Kununurra, Carlton Gorge, Tarrara Bar, Ivanhoe Crossing
The Ord River is the most regulated river in the Kimberley: the Kununurra Diversion Dam traps water to form Lake Kununurra and the Ord River dam traps water to form Lake Argyle. Water from the Ord River is used for agriculture and hydroelectricity. The major tributaries of the Ord River upstream of Lake Argyle are the Elvire, Panton, Nicholson, Negri, Wilson/Bow and Behn rivers. The Dunham River is the largest tributary downstream of Lake Kununurra. There are no major tributaries between Lake Argyle and Lake Kununurra. The Ord River drains into the west arm of the Cambridge Gulf. Nearby rivers include the Keep and King.
The upper catchment of the Ord River straddles the Halls Creek fault and is composed of basalt, sandstone, mudstone and limestone. The main channel meanders through broad, open valleys and is somewhat confined by bedrock outcrops. It varies from a channel with wide sand and gravel bars that are very lightly vegetated to a channel filled by narrow, wellvegetated bars. The Ord River dam is in a natural gorge in the Carr Boyd Ranges. Below the dam, steepsided tablelands and rocky hills border wide plains of deep, cracking clay soils. Downstream of Kununurra the channel is characterised by lateral bar forms, occasional rock outcrops (such as Tarrara Bar) and heavy growths of algae and larger aquatic plants. The latter is a result of the changed flow regime and nutrient levels since the dams were built. In its estuarine reaches the Ord River large quantities of sediment have accumulated at regular intervals between bends. Gully erosion is common along the flat flanks of the river.
Since the Ord River was dammed, new ecosystems have evolved due to the changes in channel form, water balance and resultant vegetation. The lower Ord River�s floodplain and lakes Argyle and Kununurra have been declared internationally important wetlands under the Ramsar Convention as a result of the post-dam ecology. The Ord River has been recognised as a nationally important wetland due to its significance as a habitat for more than 75 bird species, including significant breeding and migrant populations.

King Edward River
Facts at a glance Length 221 km Catchment area 8 400 km Mouth South Napier Broome Bay, Kalumburu Average annual rainfall 1120 mm Annual rainfall range 1000 � 1300 mm Notable features Carson and Morgan Rivers, Carson Escarpment, Morgan Falls, Worriga Gorge, Moongiyarrie Falls
King Edward, Carson and Morgan rivers located up on the coast. The King Edward River lies in the far north Kimberley and is recognised as a wild river. It flows northward for approximately 120 kilometres from its source before turning east. It then turns north again for 100 kilometres to flow into Napier Broome Bay, just downstream of Kalumburu. The Carson River is a major tributary of the King Edward River. It joins the King Edward River just 25 kilometres upstream of Napier Broome Bay. Other waterways near the King Edward River include Wade Creek and the Lawley River, which are also nationally recognised wild rivers.


Drysdale River
Facts at a glance Length 432 km Catchment area 15 690 km Mouth Napier Broome Bay Average annual rainfall 1000 mm Annual rainfall range 900 � 1300 mm Notable features Solea Falls, Miners Pool, Carson Escarpment, Theda homestead, Drysdale River National Park
The Drysdale River drains the heart of the north Kimberley. It is the third longest river in the Kimberley and its catchment includes many types of landscape. The main tributaries of the Drysdale River are the Gibb and Woodhouse rivers and Crossland and Banjo creeks. Major rivers nearby are the King George and Berkeley rivers.
The middle reaches lie in the Drysdale River National Park. The country is hilly in the park�s southernmost section, but further north it flattens out to broad valleys and shallow gorges. The channel here is approximately 150 metres wide and meanders across the landscape. Large sandbars and long broad pools are evidence of the power of the river in flood. Floodways extend up to 500 metres from the river channel. Near the northern border of the national park, the Drysdale River descends from the sandstone plateau through a gorge in the Carson Escarpment via small falls and rapids. The Solea Falls or Horseshoe Falls are the best-known waterfalls in the area.
Below the plateau the country begins to open out and the river flows over a low plain. The channel is broad and sandy, braided in places, with numerous long pools. Just upstream of its mouth, the river is confined by the Barton River fault to a very straight and narrow course for over 20 kilometres, before finally emptying into Napier Broome Bay over a series of stepped rapids.


Berkeley River
Facts at a glance Length 180 km Catchment area 4 740 km Mouth Joseph Bonaparte Gulf Average annual rainfall 850 mm Annual rainfall range 800 � 900 mm Notable features The sand bar at the river�s mouth, Casuarina Creek falls, Mount Casuarina
The Berkeley River flows across the north-east Kimberley into the broad Joseph Bonaparte Gulf. Its catchment is one of the largest under Indigenous management: run by the Oombulgarri community of the Forrest River Reserve. Tour boats and fishing enthusiasts visit its estuaries. It has one major tributary, the De Lancourt River, which is 57 kilometres long.
Major rivers of the north Kimberley include the Prince Regent, Mitchell, King Edward, Drysdale, King George and Berkeley rivers. These rivers are remote, have rugged, rocky catchments and, until recently, were difficult to access. National parks and reserves have been created in some areas in recognition of the ecology and the beauty of these rivers.


Prince Regent River
Facts at a glance Length 104 km Catchment area 3 160 km Mouth St George Basin Average annual rainfall 1400 mm Annual rainfall range 1150 � 1420 mm Notable features King�s Cascades, Mount Trafalgar, Python Cliffs, Pitta Creek, and Gun Springs
The Prince Regent River drains into St George Basin and then into Brunswick Bay. It has nine major, but short, tributaries originating within 10 to 30 kilometres of the main channel. To the south of the Prince Regent River, the Sale, Gibson and Glenelg rivers drain into Doubtful Bay. To the north, the Roe and Moran rivers drain into Prince Frederick Harbour.

Tyre repairs (normally available until September)
Last fuel stop on the way to Kulumburu or the Mitchell Plateau.
Please Note folks: Regretfully, we are unable to forecast when the road will open; this is not our decision. Due to working 7 days a week we seldom drive the road ourselves, so are simply unable to help you with current road condition reports.



IMPORTANT FROM ROB AND MARG ON THE GIBB: Now folks these great locals serving you in these remote roadhouses work hard from dawn to dusk to please everyone. We see on Tripadvisor complaints about service, price and quality of food etc. Folks allow some slack as we say in the north and give them a fair go. Expect local 5S Star service not international 5 star. As for price expect hefty price your in the middle of the Kimberley and outback. Of all our 50,000 plus customers never once has any of them complained to us though we do see others on social media hammer them on rare occassions. To us they are the lifelood and mechanics that keep the Gibb River Road alive.
