Flying Australia - Drysdale River National Park
This video was filmed on 5th June 2015 using a GoPro Hero 3+ attached to the left wing strut of Cessna 172 VH-ICH. The footage commences within the Drysdale River National Park, intersecting the Drysdale River approximately 220 kms north west of Kununurra in Western Australia. After tracking a short distance downstream my course takes me over Solea Falls, then, following a 180 degree turn, back upstream again. My path continues to follow the river in a general southerly direction for approximately 55 kms before heading west to intersect the Carson River at the northern end of the Carson River Escarpment. Video footage concludes near the southern end of the escarpment.

Australia - Gibb River Road - Travel Tips
The Gibb River Road is a 660 km track right through the wild heart of the Kimberley. The Gibb takes you from Derby to Kununurra through a spectacular landscape of intensely coloured ranges, dramatic gorges and lush rock pools and waterfalls.
TRAVEL TIPS - GIBB RIVER ROAD
Tip 1 - Simply enjoy the fantastic road
The Kimberley's remote Gibb River Road remains one of Australia's great drives. You may find some helpful information under these links:
Tip 2 - Boab Prison Tree
The Boab Prison Tree is a 1500 year old hollow tree 6 km south of Derby. It had been reputed to have been used in the 1890s as a lockup for indigenous Australian prisoners on their way to Derby for sentencing.
Tip 3 - Silent nights with an open fire
Have your own campfire but you need to know what the Fire Danger Rating is.
Tip 4 - Windjana Gorge's freshwater crocodiles
If you are driving the Gibb River Road, Windjana Gorge is an obvious first/last stop for your trip. Windjana Gorge is a 3.5 km gorge. The cliffs on both sides of the gorge are 30 to 100 metres high. Simply Beautiful, you will see many freshwater crocodiles.
Tip 5 - Take a bath in the 'Bell Gorge'
Bell Gorge is part of the King Leopold Ranges Conservation Reserves. The waterfall is cascading down the perfectly U-shaped cliffs, into a deep pool perfect for swimming, with large flat rocks along the side, perfect to sit down, sun bathe, have a beer... The campground is 10 Km from the gorge., called Silent Grove.
Tip 6 - 'Charnley River Station'
Charnley River Station is a working cattle station on the Gibb. The campground is very spacious and has good facilities. It takes some driving and walking to get to the gorges and swimming holes, but it's well worth the effort. We liked Dillie Gorge and the Donkey Pools.
Tip 7 - Don't Forget at least one spare tire
The Gibb River Road is notorious for it's endless corrugations and sharp rocks, and flat tyres are a common problem. If possible, it's a good idea to take two spare tyres with you. If you need help along your trip, tyre repairs/mechanical services are available at the following points: Over the Range, Charnley River Station, Mt Barnett Roadhouse, Home Valley Station, El Questro and Drysdale Station.
Tip 8 - 'Over the Range' THE mechanic - is worth to visit!
'Over the Range' - tyre and mechanical repairs can be helpful if you have a problem with your car. But it's worth to visit - even without any problem.
Tip 9 - 'Galvans Gorge' Perfect for a short refreshing bath
The gorge is a short walk from the carpark and it's well worth checking out for a refreshing swim. look up to the top of the waterfall and you will see a big boab tree, which is pretty unique. There is also a rope swing from one of the overhanging snappy gum trees. The nearest camping is at Manning Gorge.
Tip 10 - 'Manning Gorge' a must on the Gibb
The campground is 8 km from the Mount Barnett Roadhouse and is the starting point for the walk to the gorge. The walk to the gorge is great, about 3 km long and hot. At the beginning you have to cross the Manning River by swimming or using the little boat. The gorge is huge and amazing. It has several pools to swim and jump into.
Tip 11 - 'Ellenbrae Station' best scones in WA
A little known bushcamp with lots of character and Kimberley pioneer flair. Ellenbrae does not have any spectacular gorges, so it's usually nice and quite here. At the homestead you get the best scones in WA.
Tip 12 - 'Pentecost River' you HAVE to cross & you will like it
The Pentecost River is a major river crossing. The river can be 60+ metres wide and the water often flows quickly just after the end of the wet season. A scenic area with panoramic views towards the Cockburn Ranges. Be aware of saltwater crocodiles in the area.
Tip 13 - 'Zebedee 32°C-Springs' just one of El Questro's gorges
El Questro offers a campground at the station township that has all the usual facilities and alternative bush camping sites at the river. This is your last opportunity for camping on the Gibb River Road. From here it's only 30 km until you reach the highway.

Was it all worth it? Gibb River Road Part 2/3 (Mitchell Falls) - Ep.55
Ellenbrae Station to Barnett river ????⛲️????
VIA Mitchell Falls
GIBB RIVER ROAD - Part 2️⃣
After leaving the Durack River after one night, we popped in to Ellenbrae Station. The temptation of fresh scones was what pulled us in. The station is very green, with loads of plants, tall trees providing shade and green grass????. We grabbed a scone with jam & cream and enjoyed it in the garden.
Gibb River free camp, approx 20km north of the Kalumbaru turnoff was our next camp for the night. A big area along the side of a sandy creek. Plenty of room, for plenty of campers. A great overnight spot???? which had a small amount of fresh-water about for a quick dip. The next day we made it up to Drysdale River Station. A top up on fuel & water, plus a spot of early lunch. Kurt tried the Kimberley Monster burger while Amz had a cheeseburger????.
We pulled up to a gravel pit, which was 1km south of the Mitchell Falls turnoff. Unfortunately there is no dog friendly camps???? closer to Mitchell Falls. We spent 3 nights here without any hassle. The first day we went in, while Kurts parents looked after Rusty???? and the campsite. The next day, they day tripped in and vice a versa. The road into Mitchell Falls wasn’t too bad, the worse part was the last 20km! That was bone shaking????.
The walk itself is relatively easy with 90% of it being flat and 10% a bit of rock hopping. It took us 50minutes to walk the 3.7km each way????. Plenty of water about to keep cool on the walks. Definitely start it early, as there is little to no shade on the trail. We grabbed a few photos, had a dip up the top of the falls and then headed back to the car. We stopped into the King Edward River camp for a squizz and a swim up at the King Edwards Falls????. The falls are approximately 1km / 10 minute walk north-east of the ‘day use area’. Arriving at 2pm we had the falls all to ourselves!
After 3 nights at the gravel pit, we left bright and early Monday morning to make tracks back south, and to continue west. Well after only 15 minutes since leaving camp, we were waved down by a man with overalls????????. He was camped on the side of the road and told us of his major car trouble. Poor John had the front hub of his cruiser fall apart, which resulted in damaged to the thread and nuts. He had resigned himself to the fact he would need a $5,000+ tow back to Kununurra. That was before Kurt and his dad worked their magic!????
Four hours later, and after alot of mucking around, the boys were able to rethread the damaged parts and assemble the hub back together to hopefully get John and his partner back to Drysdale????????. The boys patch job to the car, had to make it back 70km on some pretty badly corrugated stretch of roads. With lots of positive thoughts - THEY MADE IT!!???? They were so happy to roll into Drysdale, because this meant they had access to water, civilization, phone service and were able to organize new car parts.????
Knowing they were now safe and sound and not stranded on the side of the road, we said goodbye and continued the journey south. We made it to Barnett River - free camp later that night????. Barnett River Gorge is managed by the indigenous and a must see gorge along the Gibb. You camp approximately 1km out of the gorge entrance, which is all signed. In the morning, we walked the 1km into the start of the gorge trail, and then a further 1km into the gorge itself.
Rusty???? loved it, as she was able to join us on this walk. The path into the gorge, is a little tricky to find at first but a breeze once you get going and know what your looking for. You can swim in some sections of the gorge as it is all fresh water.
⭐️ our tip is to follow the trail up to the lookout - gives you a great overall view point!
Well we’re about half way across the Gibb now and we can’t wait to see what the other half has to offer.

Gibb River Road I Australia 2017
Hey guys ;)
if you're traveling Australia, make sure that you don't miss out to drive The GIBB RIVER ROAD in Western Australia.
It's a very different outback experience and definitely worth it!
This trip took us about 10 days from Derby to Kununurra.
It was one of the most spectacular drives we've done so far.
One highlight was definitely swimming in the #GalvansGorge, the most easily accessible gorge by the way (in this part of Australia).
Our travel mates played a big part in the trips success and we can highly recommend to drive it with more than one car..
Well, we made it :)
Here a short-film about some of our highlights.. enjoy..

Australia - Windjana Gorge - Gibb River Road - Travel Tips
Australia - Windjana Gorge - Gibb River Road - Travel Tips
Windjana Gorge National park is one of the Kimberley's most stunning gorges.
LOCATION AND CAMPGROUND
Windjana Gorge is located about 145 kilometres from Derby. No, you don't have to travel the Gibb River Road to see Windjana. The turn off is very close to Derby, before the Gibb River Road gets serious. If you are driving the Gibb River Road, Windjana is an obvious first or last stop for your trip.
The park has good camping facilities and the Windjana Gorge Campground provides showers, toilets and fire pits.
THE GORGE
The Walk to the Gorge, begins at the campground and winds through the gorge. The short walk takes a look at marine life forms fossilized within the limestone of the gorge walls. The 3.5-kilometre long gorge cuts through the limestone of the Napier Range; part of an ancient barrier reef. The walls of the Gorge rise abruptly from the wide floodplain of the Lennard River, reaching about 100 meters high in some places.
WINDJANA FRESHWATER CROCODILES
Many freshwater crocodiles bask in the pools. They are generally small – in between a meter and 3 meters at the most. Freshwater crocodiles are usually harmless. They won't stalk or attack you like saltwater crocodiles do. Still, a crocodile is a crocodile and their teeth are razor sharp, so take care...

4km Walk to find this natural beauty
The headwaters of the river rise to the west of the Ashton Range. It flows in a northerly direction through the Drysdale River National Park past the Seppelt Range, over a drop of 80 metres (262 ft) at King George Falls and then discharges into Koolama Bay and the Timor Sea.
