From the Five Rivers Lookout on the top of the Bastion Range at Wyndham, you can see where five Kimberley rivers meet and flow into the ocean… the Ord, Forest, King, Durack and Pentecost Rivers.
Only a few weeks ago we travelled the other “end”…150km over the Gibb River Rd visiting Windjana Gorge & Tunnel Creek. This 660km infamous road provides access to many beautiful, remote locations eg El Questro which unfortunately are not open due to COVID.
Visited the workshop & showroom. The pieces bought are simple off cuts. The more intricate items are works of art… sculptures of animals small and large
Source material only found in Kununurra (no where else in the world)
Have been looking forward to doing this crossing for some time. This concrete causeway was built over the Ord River and remains in flow year round. The current from the river is very strong. Estuarine crocodiles can be seen at Ivanhoe Crossing, so the area is not safe for swimming.
