RV TRAVEL
Emma Gorge.
Marlgu Billabong in Parry
Lagoons Nature Reserve
is a must for birdwatchers.
You can access it from a
horrible road branching off
from the road to Parry Creek
Farm (where you can camp),
but a much better option
is to continue on the Great
Northern Highway past Parry
Creek Road for 4.4km.
The billabong at sunset is
ravishing. The number of boab
trees standing guard over the
surrounding plateau will thrill
botanists. If you are driving
back to Kununurra after dusk,
be mindful of agile wallabies
coming out to feed.
A TASTE OF THE GIBB
If you are not up to doing the
entire Gibb River Road but
would like a taste of it, take
a 25km drive from the east
end of the Gibb to Emma
26
gorv.com.au
Gorge Resort on El Questro
Station. You can park at
the resort and take the
moderately difficult one-hour
hike to Emma Gorge and its
lovely waterfall.
Eleven kilometres further
along the Gibb is the turn-off
to El Questro Village (with
camping). The turn-off for
Zebedee Springs is 10km
along, a true oasis at the
end of a short, easy walk.
To soak in these warm
waters, surrounded by
stunning palm trees, is an
unforgettable experience
in an enchanting Garden of
Eden. Note that a $12 day pass
is required for all adults, and,
Zebedee Springs is closed in
the afternoons. Contact El
Questro for more information.
That’s Kununurra for you,
with as much or as little to do
as you please.
