Hamersley Gorge — Attraction in Karijini

Going here is like visiting another world. It's also one of the easiest gorges to get into so it's ok to bring your fam!

Bringing a caravan is problematic considering the very small and...

Please note some of the walks are challenging and you need to be careful. Keep an eye on your children. There are also a number of good, safe swimming holes and a small waterfall when we were there. It is a long trip from Dales Gorge to Hamersley Gorge so we generally do it on the way out by stocking up with supplies and fuel in Tom Price then heading north to Hamersley Gorge. Please note about 40 or so km up the Wittenoon rd there is a road on the right which has a Hamersley sign on it. DO NOT TURN RIGHT. Hamersly Gorge is...
