Kununurra Travel Guide

 didgeridorien Says:  This is the second biggest storage reservoir in Australia. It was build because there's to much water in the Wet and to little in the Dry. By this regular water supply, agricultur has bloomed here. The lake deserves a visit, water as far as the eye can see and ridges... 

 didgeridorien Says:  This is a great lookout in the middle of town. You've got amazing views especially during sunset. If you visit during the Wet, you can also see some great thunderstorms from there, but the knob also gets struck a lot, so be careful. 

 didgeridorien Says:  If you've got a 4WD, you should go here. They made some kind of a dam across the Ord river, the water on the edge isn't deep, so you can cross the river with your 4 WD. You can also go fishing there, although the Aboriginals are better at it. And you can go swimming, but... 

 kid-keith Says:  I nearly put this in the off the beaten track column but maybe it`s a bit more touristy now. This had to be one of my favorite places not just in the Kimberly`s but in the whole of Oz(i kid you not). Amazing waterfall and with 4x4 driving through it really was something... 

 kid-keith Says:  Zebra Rock arts and crafts musem is located about 20 minutes out of the town centre. Here you will find many craftings out of Kimberly`s famous Zebra Rock and watch the local craftsman at work. Also a great place to have some lunch at there cafe and walk down to the waters... 

 kid-keith Says:  A national park in the Kimberly region, Geike Gorge is a must see if your heading to Kununurra or now leaving it`s an hour or two drive away(possibly more). Here you`ll find Freshwater Crocs, colorful Birds and fish splashing around. You can go on a very well priced Gorge... 

 kid-keith Says:  Lake Argyle, nine and half times bigger than Sydney Harbour was purposely built in Kununuarra and is a great place to go and chill out or have a picnic, but me being me just had to take the fishing rod and have a go didn`t catch much but apparently it does hold so... 

 kid-keith Says:  The Bungle Bungles, if your heading to Kununurra from the west coast or just leaving and heading west, in between Broome and Kununurra there is the Bungle Bungles, the best way to see these is by air you can book a flight and fly over them i did`nt actually see them this... 

 1+1 Says:  About 70 kms from Kununurra, Lake Argyle provides some spectacular scenery. See my travelogue for more information and photos.

 didgeridorien Says:  This campground has got waterside cabins and tent sites. It's close to Lake Argyle too, and you can see lots of wildlife there, I even saw freshies (freshwater crocodiles) there. There are some beautiful boab trees on this campground. Also there's a pool and you can do your... 

 littlebush Says:  The Desert Inn Backpackers is a really nice chilled out hostel. They have a good kitchen to cook and also show films most nights. Its right near town and they do lifts to Kellys knob for sunset! about $20 for a dorm. 

 kid-keith Says:  Crocs are frequently sighted in the Kimberly area and this includes Kununurra so becareful when visting places like Lake Argyle and Mirima National Park as they are there so read the signs and stay clear of areas where they`ve been sighted. 

 1+1 Says:  If out boating or canoeing remember that not only is the sun very intense because of the proximity to the equator and constant clear skies, but you also have the reflection off the water. This means you have virtually double of what is a very high rate of insolation. Be sure...
