Windjana Gorge

A gorge carved through an ancient Devonian reef system in the Kimberley. Home to freshwater crocodiles and Aboriginal rock art.

The park opens for the dry season, roughly May to November; through the wet the roads in are impassable and it closes, often from October to April. Access is by unsealed road and needs a four-wheel drive. Freshwater crocodiles bask on the sand and in the pools along the gorge walk — keep your distance and do not swim. Campground bookings are essential and open up to 180 days ahead for the 1 June to 31 October season.
