A journey along the Gibb River Road four wheel drive route is one of the last true outback adventures. Originally constructed in the 1960s to transport stock from surrounding cattle stations, it stretches some 660km from King Sound in Derby to Wyndham.
Travel on the Gibb River Road can be restricted during the wet season (around November to April). Flooding and road closures are common and access to the gorges is often limited or not possible. Sidetracks into Gorges are often closed even if the Gibb River Road is open. Please stay informed, be safe on the roads, and obey the road closure notices.
Highlights include Windjana Gorge, Tunnel Creek, Lennard Gorge, Bell Gorge, Galvans Gorge, Manning Gorge, Drysdale River Station, Balanggarra Home Valley Station and El Questro Wilderness Park.
Mt Hart Homestead/Wilderness Lodge – offering unique accommodation or camping 49km off the Gibb, Mt Hart historically was the first cattle station “over the range”. History as well as access to Mount Matthew and Annie Gorge is a great reason to detour off the Gibb.
Charnley River Station – originally known as “Beverley Springs”, it was the first property to accommodate tourists along the Gibb River Rd. Now managed by the Australian Wildlife Conservancy as a sanctuary with some area still set aside to run cattle. Camping is still available and access to some gorges on the property.
Galvans Gorge – a beautiful little gorge with easy access close to the Gibb River Rd. A delightful spot for a refreshing swim.
Mt Elizabeth Station – Only 29km off the Gibb, Mt Elizabeth station is owned and run by husband and wife Peter and Pat Lacy as a working cattle station. Self guided 4WD tours or join in a guided tour, access to gorges, camping and accommodation in this
Ellenbrae Station – Only 5km off the Gibb, Ellenbrae is famous for its Devonshire teas in the beautiful gardens of the homestead, Camping and accommodation available.
